About me

I have been game mastering for a little over four years, starting with Dungeons and Dragons 5e, and then running Blades in the Dark, and then Pathfinder 2e, which is where we I have happily been the forever GM of my group, and have loved expanding my social circles, learning both the mechanics of systems and the soft skills of GMing, and putting them together to give friends old and new a chance to enjoy the combination of epic fantasy, improv comedy, and tactical creativity that only TTRPG's can provide. I am excited for a chance to GM for a new audience and look forward to helping players create stories they will always remember.

GM Style

I am currently focused on GMing Pathfinder 2e, though I am interested in exploring lesser used systems. I am not a huge fan of how PF2e handles chases, but that aside, it's my favorite system. I typically use the Free Archtype optional rule. I am happy to run either Paizo's official adventure paths or homebrew a campaign taylored to player interests. I welcome players of all backgrounds, and would consider myself to be a completely beginner friendly GM. I have very much enjoyed how Virtual Table Tops like Foundry give me tools to make a more immersive experience for players with stuff like music, sound effects, visual effects, fog of war, and more.
