Portfolio
Like humans, it can often be hard to fully convey the scope and depth of a project or persons through a few lines in a resume or CV. But through tech and media, we are able to share, learn, and understand one another better. Thus, thank you for taking the time to go through my portfolio to get to know me better and to learn about some of my favorite projects that I have worked on.

VAL Swiftplay

VAL Game Modes Player Motivations & Audience Sizing
This was a foundational project that helped us understand our current playerbase's needs and motivations for playing certain game modes in our ecosystem. This project allowed us to identify unmet player needs we had yet to fulfill and was central to getting game modes like Team Deathmatch and Swiftplay funded and shipped.
