About me

I have been a DM for D&D for three years and have run games for Waterdeep Dragon Heist, Icewind Dale Rime of the Frostmaiden, Escape from the Abyss among other modules and some homebrew. I am currently running Vecna Eve of Ruin campaign with my friend. I enjoy teaching new players the game as well.
