Bio:
I’m a passionate and creative leader who puts people at the front of everything I do. I thrive on solving difficult challenges and love working on anything that lets me bring a creative angle.
I am a chameleon who adapts to change and to people’s needs. In my time in games, I’ve been an Art and Creative Director, a Writer, a Producer, an Artist, and a Manager. I’m happy if I’m making something – anything – and the more creative the better.
Everyday I bring all of those skills together to support groups in my org to deliver cutting edge, high quality content and services.
I put my core philosophy at the forefront of everything I do: People first + strong Process = exceptional Product. People/Process/Product.
