    I've been filming and editing videos for 15 years. I edited short films and music videos for teachers and classmates while I was getting my BFA in Acting. I've produced, filmed, and edited videos for theaters, comedy teams, and tech companies. Not to mention creating my own show called Edgar Allan Poeprov, an improvised play based on the life and works of Edgar Allan Poe. After getting started on Upwork I've done everything from creating a year-long educational course from scratch to teaching private lessons on how to use Photoshop. I'm proficient with Adobe Premiere, After Effects, and Photoshop. I have excellent project management skills, and I'm great at communicating these ideas as well. Feel free to ask me anything!

    I'm a tabletop game designer and developer who also creates media for game publishers. The majority of my work has been dedicated to designing card-driven miniature games that blend the interactivity of the former with the dynamic play space engagement of the latter, with the mission to make miniature gaming more accessible through novel design rather than sheer simplification. As a designer, I approach each project by deep-diving into the subject matter, and then applying the ideology that all mechanics must be justified by theme, and the theme must be enhanced by those mechanics. This process leads to games that encapsulate the essence of the subject material and provide a thematically uncompromised experience for players. Whether you're looking for a designer for your upcoming game, consultation on your existing project, or someone with a rich history of production, post-production, and graphic design to help create content and assets for your game, I can help.
