As a dedicated Game Designer and Technical Consultant, I specialize in transforming conceptual visions into commercially viable tabletop products. My work focuses on the intersection of engaging gameplay mechanics and manufacturer-ready production standards, primarily serving independent creators and Kickstarter-funded projects in the United States and international markets. Key Responsibilities & Achievements: Game Mechanics & Balancing: Developed and stress-tested complex gameplay loops for over [Number, e.g., 15+] successful titles, including Strategy Board Games, TCGs, and Party Card Games. I utilize mathematical modeling to ensure balanced play across various player counts. Technical Asset Production: Expert in creating high-fidelity, print-ready components. This includes the design of card frames, custom board maps, and packaging templates utilizing industry-standard CMYK color profiles and precise bleed/margin specifications to ensure zero-error manufacturing. Rulebook Architecture: Authored and formatted comprehensive rulebooks and technical manuals. I focus on reducing player "onboarding friction" by using clear instructional design, iconography, and structured flowcharts. Project Lifecycle Management: Guided clients through the "Prototype-to-Product" pipeline, providing 3D mockups and digital prototypes (Tabletop Simulator) for playtesting and marketing purposes. Kickstarter Optimization: Produced high-impact visual assets and technical specifications for crowdfunding campaigns, helping projects meet and exceed their funding goals through professional presentation. Core Philosophy: I believe a successful game is defined by its clarity and its "table presence." My goal is to ensure that every asset I deliver whether it’s a single card or a 50-page manual is polished, professional, and ready for the global stage.
