Since 2008, I've been making the messy, human parts of game production actually work — the schedules, the partnerships, the 2am incident calls, the moment a team finally clicks. I started in audio, which taught me that good production, like good sound design, is mostly invisible when it's done right.
Along the way I've shipped 100+ titles across PC, mobile, and browser, led 3 game studios of up to 70 people, and managed partnerships with Disney, Microsoft, Niantic, the PGA, MLB, and the NHL. I still live in Northampton, MA, where I also taught game design for a semester and helped run a shared studio space for local developers.
