I specialize in creative conception and production for gaming and interactive experiences.

Over 7+ years at Snapchat, I led and shipped augmented reality campaigns built around interactive systems, user behavior, and platform-native storytelling for partners like Activision, Electronic Arts, WB Games, and Roblox. I keynoted the 2024 Snapchat Gaming Roadshow, presenting AR solutions to companies including Nintendo and Scopely.

I loved working with game studios so much that I went and got a Master's in Game Design at the NYU Game Center.
