About
Lead game designer/producer who shipped a Fortnite TMNT-themed rogue-like dungeon crawler, owning progression, economy, and tuning. Improved retention measurably by replacing a linear points system with an exponential economy formula, increasing playtime by ~50%, and iterated quickly via playtests (mini-boss pacing, weapon drop-rate balance). Also built UE Blueprints for FPS animation montages and state transitions to address clunky movement feedback.
