I'm a professional video game designer with over 15 years of experience. I grew up in Kentucky, went to school at Full Sail University in Winter Park, FL. I then spent the first half of my career moving up the California coast working for companies like Electronic Arts and Oddworld Inhabitants.
I'm currently a Principal Game Designer at Deep Silver Volition working on an Unannounced Project, previously worked on Saints Row 4 and Red Faction Armageddon. Volition is a fantastic place to work and we do amazing things. Champaign is also a really great place to live with tons of food and craft beer close by :)
Full Sail University has always been a big part of my life and got me started on the path to where I am today. I was incredibly honored to be inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2011 and do my best to help students get their dream career as well. I'm now there a few times a year for Hall of Fame events or to sit on the Game Studies Advisory Council.
My goal with the blog is to share my Game Design and Development thoughts for those who are outside of the industry and maybe trying to get in. I also am trying to be more active in posting in general about what I'm playing, reading, or my current Fitness goals. I tend to be an open book, so if there's anything you'd like me to post about...just ask!
