Senior Writer & Narrative Designer with AAA, Indie, and Mobile experience; skilled in high-concept worldbuilding, big-picture continuity, scene / dialogue work, character work, story breaking, and narrative pacing.

I’ve been featured and interviewed by Twist-Tales - a site dedicated to game writing, interactive storytelling, and narrative design.

I also have an extensive background in academic writing, journalism, and non-profit work. I have earned Bachelor’s Degrees both in Philosophy (Political Ethics) and English (World Literature), and a Master’s Degree in Bioethics & Medical Humanities. My academic work has focused largely on the intersection between fiction (prose and poetry), politics, ethics, religion, global sociocultural movements, and science.

Outside of game writing, I’m also the founder, vocalist, guitarist, and bassist for Iapetus - an internationally acclaimed, progressive death metal band, signed to Willowtip Records.
