Career Journey
Personal Bio
My journey in game development began in 2010 at Warner Bros., where I quickly climbed the ranks from Screenshot Artist to Associate Audio Designer. During this time, I honed my skills working on AAA titles like The Lord of the Rings Online®, Dungeons and Dragons Online®, and DC Comics Infinite Crisis.
A year-long adventure in New Zealand in 2014 ignited my passion for nature and wildlife, which I later channeled into creating compelling environmental content in Seattle. This unique blend of game development expertise and a love for the natural world has consistently informed my creative approach.
In 2019, I joined Bit Fry Game Studios as Senior Marketing Producer, where I played a key role in launching the Ultimate Rivals™ series on Apple Arcade and Steam.
Currently, I'm leading creative marketing campaigns at Giant Squid, the studio behind award-winning titles like ABZÛ, The Pathless, and our latest release Sword of the Sea.
My decade-long experience in the industry has equipped me with a diverse skill set, from audio design to marketing production. I'm passionate about crafting immersive gaming experiences and building vibrant communities around them. Whether I'm working on console ports or gearing up for the next big project, I always find time to appreciate the little things - like listening to the birds.
