Exploring + Establishing + Executing IP multi-disciplinary world building as part of visual development, pitches, prototypes, and interactive real-time experiences.
I am currently working as the Principal Art Director for Wizards of the Coast Digital Gaming, setting a vision and leading external and internal teams with inspiring targets for video game IP from mobile to AAA.
Chasing my daughter, traveling with my brilliant wife, reading sci-fi books, doodling, sitting pensively on stairs, HBO, and consuming copious amounts of espresso all contribute heavily to my happiness and sanity.
