Solo Game Developer by trade. As Head of Indie at Reboot Develop conferences, I handle various endeavors across the games industry—primarily focused on helping indie developers find opportunities. The titles "Indie Senpai" and "nmap Lord Supreme" encapsulate my essence while purposefully refusing to define my LinkedIn headline like a normal human being.
The other half of my career is rooted in cybersecurity and data privacy—while I struggle to find time to play your indie games and develop my own.
