I'm a cofounder at Serenity Forge, a studio that develops and publishes meaningful games. I want to make video games just as well-respected among the mainstream as movies, books, and TV (well, scripted TV shows at least...).

Journey is my favorite game of all time. And I'm not just saying that because I'll be at USC :P
