I love to create and play games with rich theme, attention-grabbing art, and engine-builder mechanics. After having licensed a few games to existing publishers, I'm now putting my toe into the water as a self-publisher for several future games. I got into game design in 2020 after previous careers as a professor and a software engineer.
