About Me

I am currently a graduate student at NEU working for an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts and an RA designing games. For my undergrad I worked on a BS in computational media at Georgia Tech. During that time my focus was more on animation. Irregardless of the medium, I am interested in crafting an evocative, aesthetic experience. In general, there are many feelings, observations, concepts I want to express and many potential experiences I want to generate and explore with other people. I want to discover and generate these experiences and share these novel, fascinating things.

I feel, that at heart, I am a storyteller, because of this inherent desire to express and share, and I find the malleable, untapped potential of games a limitless source of creative exploration. I am secondly a truth-seeker, someone who wants to get at the heart of things and really understand its tenets and origins. I hope to continue to witness the emergence of whole new experiences in this medium, and to generate some myself.

This is an exciting period of time in the medium of games. There are still so many different visual and aesthetic possibilities to explore, and many developers, particularly of the indie scene, are vigorously pursuing new paths and approaches. The question of whether games can be art is one I feel is now neatly resolved, and the question is now one of the artistic limits and capabilities waiting to be explored. This exploration is a quest I plan on devoting my life to, and the pursuit to better myself as an artist a lifetime commitment.
