About me

Hello! I started running my own games during the pandemic because I was looking for a way to connect and build something with my friends and family. I love helping players build cool heroes and clever detectives but most importantly I want to help new players who are wanting to try a TTRPG but don’t know where to start!

GM Style

I love running ultra-fun, lighthearted games! I encourage creative solutions to problems and love when players are invested in their characters. My games are higher in roleplay than in combat so you'll feel like a super-sleuth but still get to use your cool weapons and gear!

Mack is great! We were all new to the game but were able to get right into it. Easy balance of keeping us on track but allowing us to do fun/cool things to express ourselves. Story was well paced and well prepared

Mack helped get this newbie comfortable on our game and assisted with any questions I had. Everything was made clear to me and gave prompts through the game. Annoyingly I had to bow out due to something unplanned but Mack was very understanding about it. Amazing storyteller and scene setter. Great DM to learn MotW! Thank you!

We only had 2 players for a 1-shot and I’d never played the game before… and it was fantastic! Mack is fun, funny, and creative. She gave great support for me as a new player while still keeping the story moving right along. I hope to play more games with her in the future!

Mac is an excellent GM. I had some technical difficulties at the beginning of the session and Mac went out of her way to make sure that I could join! The game was fun to play and I felt that creative ideas reaped creative and fun rewards. I look forward to playing another game by Mac!

Mack was very welcoming and kind. I felt immediately like I could speak with her easily and we had a very chill game. One player had technical difficulties and Mack was quick to find an alternate audio solution so that the game could move forward. She was able to adjust to a table of two when other players dropped out at the last moment. Great game of Monster of the Week. I would absolutely recommend!

Mack is a game master indeed. She’s enthusiastic, energetic, and possesses a talent for creating a game that pulls all the players into a world of adventure. As first timers my family and I were clueless on what this was about. Mack took time to set us up for getting hooked. She’s patient, thorough and clear with instruction all while keeping the game moving in a fun curious manner.
