I'm a nerd, podcaster, and technical editor who tinkers with board games and TTRPGs. I generally try to make games that I wish existed. I'm still figuring out game design through trial and error, but I try to find the right tools to help players tell the stories they want to tell. You can catch my Actual Play misadventures on The Role Less Taken podcast.
