Maritime Merchant
This is a real-time tabletop farming, strategy, and trading game where players must compete to build the best farm in all the seas. I was in charge of helping manage the building of the game, artwork, and over all gameplay design.

Flood-It
Flood- It was a class programming project in which I worked with fellow students to develop a game in which users must flood the board so that all the colors match. I helped program the game mechanics in java with the rest of my team.

What Remains of Me
I recently joined the Game Studio course at Northeastern University working on a 2-D platformer and puzzle game. I am helping to develop the game using Unity. I am working as the project manager for the game this semester. I have been utilizing the agile production method as I coordinate with my peers in this studio to finish the game. It is an exciting game that tells the story of a robot in a post-apocalyptic world.

Sugar Sprint
Sugar Sprint is a candy-themed rhythm game centering around a skater girl and her trust (and potentially menacing) dog. This game was made for the game jam Jam-O-Lantern by a team of 16! I assumed both the role of developer and project manager, utilizing Unity to create the game. This game is currently published on Itch.io

Cooking Together
This website was developed to operate with a cooking video game. The site serves as a location for players to interact with each other posting and liking each other's recipes. I worked as the project manager and a designer on the website. I met weekly with my team, planning sprints and making sure to meet deadlines.

Level Design Project 2
This is a level designed by my team and I. We created a 3D level to simulate the experience of a young child navigating his dark and spooky house to get to his parent's room. The journey leads you through a series of jumpscares as you must avoid the dark horrors that lurk in your house.
