Building strange loops with playfulness and soul

Game designer turned systems architect turned game designer, I build systems that create experiences that form systems. Or maybe it's the other way around?

Over 25 years of making games, building teams, teaching software development, and managing products, I've learned to give bottom-up and top-down design equal respect, and to understand a system both by its structure and by how it feels to be inside it. I bring that to everything I make, from games to useful software.
