I’m building and scoring two video games:
1 Forward and 2 untitledgame.co.

I also write music software for composers.

Video Games

Both games are unreleased, yet inexplicably out, and freely available on laptops and mobile devices.

Collaboration with Edward TufteWith Edward Tufte2013–2018

On March 26, 2013, I was incredibly fortunate to have met Edward Tufte during a book signing after attending one of his courses in Boston. In the years since we’ve collaborated on a number of projects in information design, mostly on weekends.

We built a Chrome extension, worked on a number of essays, created a number of open-source projects based on his years of design work, and shared this work with the world on GitHub.
