About me
I have been playing or running D&D games since 1977 when a friend introduced me to it in Elementary School. Playing on-line has been a great way to meet new people and keep in touch with childhood that no longer live down the street. I volunteered as an Adventure League Coordinator here in Northern Colorado for 2 years and was the organizer of an annual D&D charity convention for 4 years here in Northern Colorado know as "Holiday Around the Moonsea". I have made many great friends and met many amazing people through Dungeons & Dragons. I enjoy building and designing digital maps and have built many specifically for my games on Fantasy Grounds. I prefer to run the older Adventure League adventures as many newer players haven't had the opportunity to play them. I have authored a few of my own adventures as well and will run them on occasion as well.
GM Style
I love to try to immerse my players into the fantasy realm with detailed descriptions of what they see to help them paint a picture in their mind. I enjoy character roleplay and hearing how they have evolved into who they are playing.

Teacher
I played one shot with him. Great feeling in length/pace of one shot game. Dungeon crawl based but still was able to get RP in. Plenty of experience. Great for both beginners and experienced players. Would I play again with him? Even with great competition here, I would and hope I will.
Joel is an outstanding DM and has been running and play for decades! Joel of course knows the rules but most importantly how to make them fun for the players. He can help the 1st timers to 30+ year veterans who have never played 5e or have played all editions. Can't recommend Joel enough!
