I joined the Skyweaver team in 2019, working as a Game Designer, and was promoted to Lead Game Designer after just one year.

I developed and iterated upon the mechanics, feel and gameplay of Skyweaver, monitoring the metagame and making balance adjustments. I also developed new expansion sets for the game,

Clash of Inventors and Hexbound Invasion, adding numerous new mechanics while expanding the lore of the world of Sky.

I worked as a key member of a multidisciplinary team, serving as an intermediary between Game Design, Marketing, Development, and Community departments.
