Summary

I’m a passionate storyteller with a deep interest in both board games and digital games. Over the years, I’ve played and analyzed countless titles, developing a strong sense of game mechanics, narrative structure, and player engagement. My academic background—shaped by studies in philosophy, cinema, and literature—helps me approach games with a critical and creative mindset. I’m particularly interested in contributing to idea development and narrative design, and I’m willing to collaborate with teams to bring thoughtful, engaging game projects to life.
