Heya-Howdy ! Welcome to My Portfolio

I'm a freelance Narrative Designer, Publisher, and Digital / Analog Game Developer local to Chicago. Graduating from the awarded Game Design Program of DePaul University in (2024), I have spent much of my career specializing in Narrative Systems Design & Roleplaying Game Authorship.

While capable of all forms of design and writing, Branching Dialogue Trees and Roleplaying Game Quest Design are my jam ! If you're here to gauge my credibility in that regard, please stop by the "Writing Samples" portion of my portfolio. Otherwise if you are just looking to contact me, please do so through LinkedIn or the link below !
