About me
Embark on a journey into the heart of imagination with me on StartPlaying. My love for tabletop RPGs started as a kid, watching my dad and his friends dive into 2nd Edition D&D. That early fascination turned into a lifelong passion, and now I'm excited to share that with you as I host games on StartPlaying Games. I live in Maine with my wife Kailey and our 1-year-old daughter, Aeva. I run weekly games both online and in-person, creating immersive, engaging adventures for players of all experience levels. I believe in collaborative storytelling, where your decisions shape the world and every game unfolds into the unknown. My goal is to blend the rich lore of D&D with dynamic gameplay and innovative narratives, making each adventure uniquely memorable. Whether you're casting your first spell or you're an experienced adventurer seeking new challenges, I invite you to join me. Together, we'll explore mystical lands, craft unforgettable stories, and build friendships that extend beyond the game table. Your legend starts now, and I'm thrilled to see where our tales will lead.

Adaptive Storytelling ensures your decisions matter, shaping the world and driving personal character growth. Fair but demanding challenges reward ingenuity, while open communication keeps the experience engaging and collaborative. Join me in crafting a legendary tale of heroism, camaraderie, and adventure!
