ABOUT ME

I've worked in the video game industry since 2007 as a Writer/ Narrative Designer. I’ve worked on large franchise games and tiny artsy-fartsy games.

Between 2000-2007, I was a performer, writer, director, and producer in the NYC improv & sketch comedy theater scene. 

I also played the lead role in the found footage/fake footage horror feature film “S&MAN (Sandman)." 

Born and raised in New York City, I attended School of Visual Arts with a focus on screenwriting.

I currently live just outside of Montreal, Canada.
