Growing up, I was encouraged to be creative. I played the violin from age 10, and have been drawing for as long as I can remember. But there was one thing that captured my interest more than anything else - video games.

Much to my parents' frustration, I devoted more time and energy to gaming than I did to other endeavors. I even designed games by writing "strategy guides" for games of my own invention. Somewhere along the line, I realized I could combine my interests and have a career making games of my own.

I have always been a passionate person, as well. I developed an interest in equality and social change, which plays a large part in my philosophy when it comes to the artwork that I create.

I want to make games that are diverse, interesting, and push the boundaries of what our society considers normal. Storytelling, character development, unique visual aesthetics, and a great soundtrack are all aspects of games that are crucial to me.
