My passion for video games began at a young age, and it has been a constant source of excitement and fascination for me throughout my life. However, my true passion for creating games started when I was invited by a journalist to attend a "new" concept of video game concerts in Sweden that was introduced with the "Distant Worlds" concert in Stockholm in 2007. This experience sparked a fire within me and inspired me to learn Japanese, travel the world, and immerse myself in all things related to video games and music. I spent countless hours researching (playing games), meeting with industry professionals, attending events, and educating myself about the intricacies of game development and the power of music in gaming. This journey has been a life-changing experience, and I am proud to have pursued my passion with dedication and perseverance.
What I like to do:
I thrive on working with cross-functional teams, streamlining processes, and delivering high-quality products that meet customer needs. My favorite part of my job is encouraging teams to learn and experiment rapidly to foster growth and development. When I'm not working, I enjoy playing story driven or co-op games, and making sure have our next DnD session booked.
Fun facts:
I was given a violin and a conductor baton in Japan - with the only requirement to never give up on music. I was later invited in Japan to conduct a 100+ person orchestra, and later a video game concert in Sweden - which now is a passionate part of my life I share with my fellow orchestra and groups I have the honor to lead.
