Industry Focus

I am fascinated by the creative process of game development and enjoy working the interview beat because it allows me to interact with professionals from every facet of the field working on an extremely broad variety of titles. My professional and personal expertise lies with narrative analysis and literary criticism of video games.

Favorite Games

I based the majority of my personality on Final Fantasy 7. Atlus invaded my thoughts and built Persona 5 for me specifically. I am addicted to Genshin Impact. I drink my morning coffee over Doom Eternal and play Beat Saber to stay in shape. Witcher 3's "botchling quest" still haunts me. I'm currently on my first 4-player campaign in Baldur's Gate 3. It is a crime that Bloodborne has not been remade for PC and I will die on that hill, but I don't think it needs a sequel. My Jedi Survivor lighstaber is orange. Tetris is unironically cool.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

To my knowledge, I was the first kid in Pasadena, California to complete the original Pokedex.
