Currently, I am the Lead World Builder on an unannounced Gearbox project.
My role is to oversee the Mission Design, Level Design, and Level Art departments. I help facilitate communication to make sure each department is aware of, and working towards, the Creative Director’s vision and shared deadlines. Additionally, I help draw together ideas from the designers from each department- along with the narrative department- to create lore and reinforce story lines, character development, and world building throughout the game.
