  AdHoc Studio

  Jan 2020 - now

  Director/Writer/Narrative Designer

  Creative Generalist serving as department leadership on some projects while contributing in a more targeted fashion on others. My first few years at Adhoc were mostly focused around cinematic development, but quickly my skills were utilized as a writer and narrative designer across multiple projects. I've done everything from write entire episodes of content, to gray blocking the levels that got us through prototype milestones, to providing temporary stylized explorations in UI, all of which involved documenting best practices for other members of the team. My time at this small, savvy game studio has gotten me well-versed in all creative realms of game development and sharpened my skills in all of them, solidifying me as a jack of all trades in almost all areas of narrative/creative.
