I'm Zack; Game Designer, Game Programmer, Game Player. I've spent the bulk of my professional career in R&D at both PlayStation and Riot Games. Over the last 7 years, I've worked on a vast array of content from levels, modes, characters, and weapons to gameplay systems, metagame progression, and thesis-sized pitches for game pivots.

As a Technical Game Designer, I push overall team velocity forward by building tools and improving pipelines as I work on my designs, and by regularly unblocking/mentoring other designers and artists. I'm always happy to help or find the teammate to help you, especially when an hour or less of my time can save hours or days of yours.

I'm passionate about what I do. It's been my job for a few years now to be a whole designer and half a programmer and it's been nothing but a privilege. With the experience I bring, I'm confident I can raise the bar on whatever team will have me next.
