I've spent the past 15 years building competitive multiplayer games, from crafting new tech art pipelines at Riot Games on League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics to founding and leading my gaming startup, Battlebound. Whether creating shaders, world-building, prototyping game systems, performance optimizations, or tooling, my expertise is empowering teams and helping games look, feel, and play great. I recently built and led Battlebound, securing $4.8M in seed funding and leading the development of two multiplayer third-person games. I crafted the tech art pipeline and key game systems, empowering our small team to build an open-world multiplayer creature collector. At Riot, I helped shape the visual foundations of League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics, rebuilding Summoner's Rift's environment pipeline, leading shader development, and tooling improvements that empowered artists across multiple disciplines. I thrive at the intersection of art and tech, bridging the game between art and engineering and rapid prototyping to validate gameplay. I'm looking ahead to my next role, where I can help build and scale games with great teams.
