Most recently, I was working at Amazon Game Studios on a new Lord of the Rings MMO as a Lead Game Designer for Social and Lifestyle features.

In addition to Game Design, I have a background in Program Management, Instructional Design, and Trust & Safety.

I shine when it comes to creative problem solving using data and customer anecdotes, cross-functional project leadership, and getting features over the finish line.

I’m currently open for work!
