ABOUT

Owner of Moose With Cup Creative. Co-Owner of Posthuman Studios. I currently reside near Guelph, Ontario with my wife and daughter. Before that, Los Angeles, and before that, Chicago. I got my start in the game-making business in the early 2000s working at the publisher of the classic cyber-punk fantasy RPG Shadowrun. I broke into video games as a writer around 2009 with Day One Studios contributing to F.E.A.R. 3 and Fracture. As a filmmaker, I’ve written and directed feature films that have premiered at Sundance and Revelation Perth, and produced a feature film that premiered at the Austin Film Festival.
