Storytelling and worldbuilding are the cornerstones of my creative and professional life. I’ve written and designed games and interactive media since 2015, when I earned a PhD in English Literature from Columbia University.
I’ve worked on games for 2n Studios, Annapurna Interactive, and Massive Damage and created interactive content for clients such as Royal Caribbean, WWE, TurboTax, and Wax, among others. And I’ve collaborated with Grammy-winning artists Childish Gambino and MGMT. I was recently a consultant on Google’s new writing-focused AI software, Wordcraft, so I really hope it doesn’t do anything evil. Maybe too late?
My humor, fiction, critical reviews, and essays have appeared in McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, 251, Los Angeles Review of Books, Social Text, Smallwork, James Joyce Quarterly, Full Stop, Harriet: the Poetry Foundation Blog, and other incredible publications.
I live in Los Angeles, California.
