For the past ten plus years, I've been an active participant in the world of video games, and on virtually every conceivable end of the spectrum. Additionally, my knowledge base plus experience has earned me a considerable degree of insight when it comes to digital arts and entertainment as a whole. Again, my main forte is video games. I began designing them for Ubisoft's short lived, semi-experimental New York studio, mostly console titles, and these days, I help produce mostly iOS offerings. Though most of my output has been in the realm of game journalism. I've covered a wide ranger of topics, yet my true passion has always been video game culture. Not just those who make games, but music, film, and artwork, because they are inspired by their love of games. Aside from writing about game culture, I'm also an active participant of that space, as a part of Attract Mode. Most recently, I have begun curating art exhibitions, again centered on video games, with critically and commercially successful showings in New York City, Seattle, and Toronto thus far.
