SUMMARY
Game designer with experience in commercial projects across diverse genres. I've always been passionate about games, from
video games to tabletop RPGs, believing they are the most intricate and engaging form of entertainment. This passion drives my
career, and I approach every project with boundless enthusiasm, striving to craft truly enjoyable experiences.
As a long-time fan of role-playing games, I love organizing such events, including team-building sessions, bringing together like-
minded people for memorable and fun moments.
