My Passions

My interests – ever changing - act as a driving force of inspiration that push me forward in my life & work.

Tabletop RPG's

For me, tabletop role-playing games – like Dungeons & Dragons, among others - have acted as an infinite canvas on which to gather with friends & strangers, to imagine and create a narrative together.

Each story is always different and always has a unique voice from the various other players in the game; there’s nothing else quite like it for me.

Games

Board games, Card games & video games have been deeply impactful to my life. Sometimes yielding me lifelong friendships, transformative experiences and beloved stories I can revisit over & over again.

Science & Technology

Science applied through engineering has been used to produce an incalculable improvement to the overall standard of living of the world.

The marvelous devices we create to tackle seemingly impossible tasks never fails to inspire & astound people all over the world - me included.

For all the good it has done, it can create trouble as well. To combat this, we must improve our relationships to our technologies and science. Making understanding & usability more accessible to an ever-wider range of users.

Education

With the rise of video & audio education media on platforms like YouTube I've been able to embrace my love of learning, no longer restricted to limited methods of education.  

Growing up as a person with dyslexia who struggled with learning and who has friends & family who struggle with physical disabilities, accessibility has always been a concern of mine.  

I hope one day to impact the way people learn by creating high-quality user experiences that will help others succeed. I believe everyone is capable so long as they are given the tools & opportunities to succeed.
