About me

I've been crafting adventures and telling stories through tabletop RPGs for over twelve years, starting with D&D 4th Edition, journeying through the realms of 3.5 and Pathfinder, and ultimately embracing 5E—my preferred playground these past few years. Along the way, I've explored countless other systems, including Shadowrun, GURPS, Star Wars Saga Edition, Mutants and Masterminds, and many more. My greatest joy as a Dungeon Master lies in the creative synergy of collaborative storytelling. I cherish the opportunity to meet imaginative, passionate players and build vibrant worlds together. At my table, players will find themselves immersed in rich narratives that challenge their creativity, strategic thinking, and role-playing abilities alike. Whether it's weaving intricate webs of intrigue, staging thrilling battles, or diving deep into character-driven drama, my goal is to cultivate an environment where players feel empowered, inspired, and deeply engaged. Most recently, my passion project has been developing and running my Long Rim setting for Lancer—a labor of love that's been ongoing for the past year, and continues to grow. Everyone is welcome at my table. I have only one rule, and it's simple: Be excellent to each other.

GM Style

You can expect rich narratives that are tailored to your character. Epic quests for glory, grand battles, and wide-spanning conspiracies. I tend to run RAI (Rules as Intended) versus RAW (Rules as Written). And the rule of cool is a default at my table. However, I never shy away from making my players earn victory. And pride myself on creating interesting challenges that push the party to the edge, ensuring that they'll need to work together to overcome the odds.
