I am the Lead Designer at Breaker Press Games, makers of Broken Contract, Tooth Chipper Fanzine, Rabid Dogs Zine, Wide-eyed Terror Zine, The Tome of Debasement Zine, and The Precipice of Corruption. My history with the gaming industry includes stints with Games Workshop Retail (store manager), Hyacinth Games, and numerous LGS' in different cities I've lived and worked in. My history with independent business and small manufacturing projects runs across 25 years of running an independent record label, ThirdxParty Records. It has also been 7 years since the inception of Breaker Press Games. Breaker Press is more than just myself, however, and things have moved forward due to the contributions of Hal Crossno (play testing, game design assistant, graphic designer), Alex Lupella (play testing and editing), Anto/Icarus Miniatures (freelance sculpting coordinator), Jamie Jordan (freelance artist), Rich Sampson (freelance artist), Mike Tommyrot (freelance artist), and Sam Alcarez (freelance artist, graphic designer). Manufacturing is currently done regionally through DigiCopy (Milwaukee, WI, USA), The Game Crafter (Madison, WI, USA), Valiant Enterprises (Madison, WI, USA), and Chessex (Fort Wayne, IN, USA).
