About me 

  My research and work revolves around ludic narratives in interactive storytelling, with a focus on why tangible agency allows deeper engagement between audience and media. It is crucial for me to use interactivity as a tool to further drive a narrative beyond dialogue and visuals, as games have brought a new age of storytelling that I am eager to explore. 

  I enjoy working with other mediums as well, such as tabletop role-playing games, playwriting, and classic novel structures. My most prominent work involves digital games and text-based adventures. These include “Silent Numbers”, an online dual-point-of-view ARG with a novel-like format, “Too Much To Do, Too Little Time”, a text-based horror adventure exploring the topic of artistic pressures.
