I'm an avid gamer, reader, and planner
One word that people always use to describe me is organized—that might sound boring, but who doesn’t love spreadsheets, databases, or FAQs? If you don’t, no worries—you’ll never have to handle them when I’m around!
I’ve always loved organizing, planning, and problem-solving. Those qualities naturally lead me to roles where I lead teams, plan projects or events, and proactively identify and resolve roadblocks.
In my free time, you’ll find me playing games, listening to audiobooks (fantasy or science fiction) while sorting things, or having a beer with friends!
Curious about what I read and play? I love Robin Hobb, Tamora Pierce, Brandon Sanderson, Maria Turtschaninoff, and Patrick Rothfuss. Some of the games that made a big impact on me are Dota 2, Journey, Amnesia, Spiritfarer, What Remains of Edith Finch, and Stardew Valley—but the list is too long! Check out my favorite games here.
