About me
Hello and welcome! I'm a full-time professional DM that's run more than 250 online sessions (StartPlaying and Discord) and has 2,500+ hours on Roll20. I have a 90% retention rate with players that join my campaigns. I've spent more than 30 years running and playing Dungeons & Dragons adventures. I'm a "PlayersGM" that's focused on your game time enjoyment. I welcome new players as well as veterans. You'll find my passion infectious, my patience legendary, and my ability to captivate your attention refreshing. I'm American born and have traveled extensively throughout the world - forging me into a down to earth person who's accepting of others in all regards. Raised in the Midwest, I have an "accentless accent" which is the same many successful broadcast journalists have. My background in writing, teaching, storytelling, improvisation, and business management lends itself well to running Dungeons & Dragons games - let's roll some dice together!
GM Style
I prefer a game balanced between the three pillars of Dungeons & Dragons - Combat, Role-play/Social, and Exploration. That being said I'm flexible and will incorporate whatever flavor of game my players want. I run games RAW (Rules as Written). Nevertheless, I never allow rules to get in the way of a great idea. Rule of Cool almost always wins out at my table. I use captivating visual aids aimed at making your life easier with NPC name badges and locations written out on screen. Maps used are handmade works of art. I curate music and background ambiance tracks to set the game mood. I'm happy to do video or voice sessions. In my custom world the collaborative story we tell revolves around you. Your choices, backstories, and wishes propel the story forward. The setting is an immersive high fantasy sandbox for your TTRPG thrills. • Hack and slash your thing - I have you covered • Enjoy exploration and deep diving into lore - I love it too • Prefer downtime to be productive and exciting - then you'll enjoy my text based solo adventures between live sessions • Want to explore a mega-city and never leave - we can do that • Need some time off for R&R in Bard Town - let's rock some Whack-A-Troll • Whether it's political intrigue, mysteries, horror, puzzles or straight up dungeon crawling you'll find it in my games
