From the balmy beaches of California, I began my video game journalism career in late 2008 at Official Xbox Magazine. After a delightful 3-month stay in the toasty greenhouse that is the OXM office, I moved to L.A. for personal reasons that may or may not include a boy. Since then, I’ve been writing features, reviews and previews for OXM, GameShark, GamePro, The Escapist and Geek.com from a less balmy Chicago.
Examples of my work:
Darksiders preview event/interview with designer Joe Madureira
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 preview
Limbo preview/interview with producer Mads Wibroe at PAX East 2010
