About me

So, you want to dive into a magical world made of words? Let me help you create your adventure! I am a voice coach/singing instructor by day and am excited to get to use my vocal expertise in the RPG world. I am most familiar with D&D 5E but enjoy learning new platforms. I believe that collaborative storytelling through role playing games is a perfect creative outlet for anyone who wants to be able to create and imagine in a safe and encouraging space! I enjoy helping adventurers "share the spotlight" so everyone in the group gets a chance to shine, and I expect my players to keep their "Plays Well With Others" badge on at all times. ;-) At my table, we might be strangers, but we are never enemies. <3 Also, I really love playing with words, so you can expect to groan/laugh at a well-timed pun on a pretty regular basis at my table. Let's StartPlaying, and see where this adventure takes us!


GM style

I am a musician and teacher, so performing and storytelling are what I do best and I can and will quickly adapt to what you need in our adventures. I am happy to teach new players "the rules" (though they're more like guidelines a lot of the time...) and introduce them to the world of D&D. I think a healthy balance of role playing, combat, and lore make for a great session, and while I am a rule follower, I don't think TPKs are super fun, so... just know that I'm still rooting for you while my monsters and NPCs try to destroy you. ;-) Even though I'm fairly new to the professional GM world, I enjoy doing my research and building up to big reveals in the storyline while helping players submerse themselves in the world we are building together. When you are so excited and intrigued that you can't stop talking about the game OUTSIDE of the game, I'll know I've done a great job. Oh, and I am excellent at keeping secrets, so... no spoilers here! I prefer to run 5e published modules and offer the following Campaigns/Settings : - Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus - Curse of Strahd - Explorer's Guide To Wildemount - Humblewood - Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden - Lost Mine of Phandelver/Shattered Obelisk - Tomb of Annihilation - Tyranny of Dragons - Hoard of the Dragon Queen / Rise of Tiamat - Waterdeep: Dragon Heist / Dungeon of the Mad Mage - Wild Beyond The Witchlight If you're looking for a one-shot (single session story), these are an absolute blast: - Gollythank (holiday themed) - Rick & Morty: Lost Dungeon of Rickedness - Wild Sheep Chase - Xanathar's Guide to Everything: Underworld Speculation Additionally, I offer a variety of immersive "Learn To Play" sessions that teach new players "the rules and mechanics" while actively participating/playing -- I learn things easier/quicker by "doing" than by "reading" (and let's face it, D&D has A WHOLE LOT OF THINGS TO READ), so I am grateful that I can offer that opportunity to new players as a fun-filled crash course. To reach out and/or request an adventure with me, simply click the "Message" or "Request Booking" button under my profile picture! I can't wait to see where our story takes us!
