"THE DETAILS ARE
NOT THE DETAILS.
THEY MAKE
THE DESIGN."
CHARLES EAMES
I joined Garden Warfare 2 on the tail end of its development and focused on economy, progression, and weapon design and balance. I designed and implemented systems new to the franchise such as side quests and XP/leveling up. I also spearheaded the development of new tools to automate much of the economy development process that was once done by hand, which will save hundreds of man hours on subsequent projects in the future. My peers and employer were very impressed with my ability to take on these responsibilities so quickly and manage to get it out the door while still reaching our quality goals.

Here is a collection of some of the games I developed on multiple platforms. This is where my fun and quirky creativity shines best, as well as my diversity. Aside from game design I also took on the roles of project manager, programmer, and even animator, keeping non-design skills fresh!
Enjoy!
