About me

I'm a game designer and developer based in Calgary, Alberta. I believe in subtractive design and the power of simplicity in systems.

I focus on clear, straightforward goals that retain players through a strong engaging core loop with a focus towards rewarding design thru data and systems that provides a fair challenge.

I enjoy breaking complex ideas down into clean, functional experiences, always aiming for clarity in communication and design. Outside of work, I'm passionate about modding games and reverse engineering, and contribute to and maintain multiple active projects on CurseForge and GitHub.
