Experience
I have explored the field of video games in a professional capacity for the last decade. For eight years, I've helped multinational studios realize their projects' narrative potential as a video game writer and narrative designer, working on projects such as Shadow and Bone: Enter the Fold and Born of Bread. When I'm not writing video games, I enjoy harnessing my development knowledge to discuss games and the medium in general. As an experienced narrative designer, I have particular insights into how games are made and the industry that produces them.
