About me
I support game studios as a Game Director and freelance consultant, helping them define clear visions, strengthen leadership, and structure teams so they can ship better games without burning out their talent.
With over a decade of experience across AAA, AA, and indie development, I bring together hands-on design expertise, leadership training, team development, and production-focused guidance, always grounded in real studio constraints.

Vision & Direction
I help studios define a clear creative and gameplay direction that can actually guide production.
This includes shaping a meaningful player fantasy and strong gameplay pillars, aligning the team around shared goals, and making sure the vision remains coherent as the project evolves.
02
Leadership Guidance & Mentorship
I support current and future leaders in developing clarity, confidence, and accountability in their roles.
From first-time leads to experienced directors, I offer guidance, mentorship, and advising to help navigate complex team dynamics and make better decisions under production pressure while staying authentic and avoiding burnout.
03
Team Structuring & Processes
I work with studios to structure teams and establish processes that support both creativity and delivery.
This covers roles, responsibilities, workflows, and decision-making, with a focus on scalability, team health, and long-term efficiency, whether teams work in-office or remotely.
04
Pitching & Communication
I help teams communicate their vision clearly and convincingly, whether it’s for internal alignment, leadership buy-in, or external partners and publishers.
This includes pitch coaching, presentation structure, and adapting the message to the audience.

I bring hands-on expertise in gameplay, combat, systems, and world design.
I support teams in solving concrete design problems, refining mechanics, and strengthening player experience across genres, engines, and production contexts.
