As a kid, my sister and I got a classic Nintendo for Christmas one year and devoured Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt. From there, we graduated to the SNES, Super Mario World, and so many other classic puzzle and platformer games. As I grew up, my love of video games never left me. I saved up to get the xbox and then a PS2 and so on, immersing myself in RPGs and action/adventure games and staying up late solving puzzle games. When I was given the chance to design a user interface for a new rehabilitation robot, I didn't hesitate to make it a game. Remembering the fun I had with Mario's Time Machine, Typing Shark, and the like, I knew the power of serious games and built a simple, single-player, pong-like game to help engage patients and motivate them to practice.

Since that first foray into game design and development, I've spent a lot of time with user experience research to improve user interfaces (both software and hardware). The knowledge I've gained from that experience informs my work in current game, application, and UI/UX design and development. It facilitates iterative loops to deliver engaging products and eliminate sub-optimal features. I specialize in creating engaging and immersive experiences and intuitive user interfaces. This portfolio showcases some of my recent work and highlights my skills in game design, UI/UX design, prototyping, and project management. I invite you to take a look and explore what I have to offer.
