Game Developer:
As well as playing games, I also love to make games as my passion. I have currently worked in the game industry since graduating college in 2007. Here are some of my most proudest achievements.
- Lead Designer on BurgerTime World Tour, a remake of the classic game done in 3D graphics from a 2D camera perspective gives new life to an old series.
- Senior Designer on Kick-Ass The Movie Game, we only had 4 months to complete a game from stratch, which was a monumental feat.
- Game Programmer and Designer on Sandy Beach, I came in on my own time to create the “Crab Battle” mode which reviewers hail as the best part of the game, and wasn’t even scheduled to be in the game in the first place.
