About me

I've been GMing TTRPGs on-and-off since grade school. My early D&D obsession was formative: it gave me a love of reading, drawing, and getting up to imaginary shenanigans with friends. I also teach kids how to play D&D (Shadowdark) at a local library. I'm always upping my GM game, whether that's improving my PF2e rules knowledge, getting better at Foundry VTT, working on art for my games, or tweaking adventures so the scenarios react and make sense for my players. These days, I'm deep into publishing my first adventure for Pathfinder 2e on Foundry VTT. It's a post-apocalyptic fantasy/sci-fi adventure in a homebrew setting. As a bonus, my SPG players can try it out first with me for free, if they're into it! I play Rules as Written, but PF2e is so robust you can pretty much try anything. I will fully engage with your creativity, and I promise to do everything I can to keep you engaged and on your toes!

GM Style

I run fun, friendly, immersive, tactical, challenging games. I aim to bring old-school creativity and player agency together with modern systems and rules. The spirit of friendship is important to me in TTRPG sessions. In order to have really good sessions, I think it's important that people get along and even like each other. We'll communicate before playing so that we know that the table will be a good one.
