Writer, Designer, Storyteller.

About Me

I’m an expert storyteller, writer, and designer with 5+ years of experience writing about and making games. I’ve loved games all my life, and was determined at a young age to make some myself. Since then, I’ve learned about ever aspect of game development, from designing sound effects and UI elements to grand narratives told in open worlds

Portfolio

My first job as a QA Tester showed me the messy reality of game development, and working as a game journalist gave me an even greater understanding of the process.

Over time, I’ve fostered a passion for writing, analyzing games as art in my Death Stranding 2: On the Beach review and I’ve even begun working on two novels. At GamingTrend, I’ve edited hundreds of video reviews to best convey the writer’s intentions through their script, the audio, and visuals.
