About me
I've been playing TTRPGs since the mid-90s and was introduced to the hobby by taking on the mantle of GM. I love playing online, meeting new people and collaborative storytelling. I'm very big on inclusion and respectful of player limits. I like my games to be a mixture of social encounters and tactical engagements. I'm deeply immersed in the TTRPG hobby and as well as running sessions multiple times as week, I enjoy Play-by-Post sessions and I'm Secretary of my local gaming association.
GM Style
I am first and foremost a fan of characters. I want to enable my story-telling collaborators to inhabit their creations and unlock their creativity. Regardless of the type of encounter I love providing "yes, and..." or "no, but..." situations to which characters can react. I love when players surprise me. I am comfortable with both story-driven and sandbox adventures.

TJ is a great GM, as a newbie to Pathfinder who'd mostly played D&D before, he's been super helpful as I learned the ropes. His stories are vivid and creative, and he does a great job of working character decisions/development into the story and making it feel like this is all part of a deeper, richer world. His GM style is so fun, and the maps/NPCs are so detailed and creative. I always look forward to our sessions!
TJ is a fantastic GM, he keeps the game flowing, especially with newbies if we get distracted. If there’s something unknown rule wise he’ll look it up in the background to keep the game going so we don’t get stuck and waste time. He’s great at describing the scene to keep me engaged at what’s going on game wise.
TJ is a great GM to game with, welcoming & friendly. He encourages player creativity & works to immerse your character/background into the world. Patient & understanding he makes for a great GM whether you're a new player or experienced. In the campaigns I've played with him I've delved dungeons, built alliances, had misfortune & even slain demigods. A wondrous variety of experiences, whether it be rich beautiful fantasy, gritty realism or just good old fun shenanigans. You'll find TJ a good crafter of the story you seek, while providing a fun & safe experience.
