Producer, Art Director, Artist

Elevator pitch - Working as a producer and art director has allowed me to pursue my passion for building teams as well as building worlds.  I've been instrumental in helping take studios from start-ups to a high-functioning teams of 300+. My contributions have included establishing and maintaining the development process, internally and externally, budgeting resources, leading cross-discipline teams, risk and conflict resolution, managing communication and collaboration between teams and promoting the high level goals of the IP while keeping the "production" side of things as unobtrusive as possible.  

I enjoy the challenge of pulling together all the disparate elements that go into creating an amazing finished product that I want to devote hundreds of hours to playing.
