Past Projects

Lead Writer (2011-2018)

Excalibur was the most ambitious indie game project of its kind when I joined the team in early 2011.
As Lead Writer, I spent the next seven years collaborating with talented designers and artists, and was tasked with writing the golden path for the proposed single player campaign, as well as all subsequent character development and lore. I also managed continuity for existing Star Trek canon and drafted the initial Game Design Document.

Lead Writer (2018-2020)

Skybound began as a personal project, quickly evolving into a small team of like-minded developers committed to the same vision for an immersive game with an exciting "dieselpunk" world, deep character development, and intoxicating narrative...all in support of a thrilling player experience. While the project was put on indefinite hold during the global pandemic, I still hope to bring it to life with the right team.
