Superbloom (Pre-Release)
Currently Superbloom is working on an innovative mobile game that aims to leverage social gameplay to create a distinct and fun entry into the realm of casual games targeted at women.
I planned narrative for the game, wrote in-game text, and designed levels. Please reach out directly for samples of dialogue text I wrote for the game, as these are not available publicly yet.

Stranded on StoryLoom (2022-Present)
Check out my serialized Choose-Your-Own-Adventure romance adventure novel, Stranded.
"All Emma wanted was to spend her day sketching on a nature cruise in rural Maine. Instead, she ends up surviving a shipwreck with a handsome frat boy named Mack. Despite a spark between them, Mack and Emma's worldviews couldn't be more different. In order to survive, Emma seeks to find common ground with him outside of their earth-shattering physical attraction -- but she’s surprised when he reveals a whole different side of himself that he's hidden from the world. Maybe they really will make it out of this nightmare alive -- as long as a ghost from the past doesn't stop them."

The Up Here/Running Out of Ink Anthology (2022)
Co-produced an anthology of short narrative games by a diverse array of international designers from the IGDA-F's 2021 Scholars program. The theme of the anthology was 'Limited Spaces' and it was shouted out by the IGDA-F and Indiepocalypse. In addition to production and marketing, I created the game 'The Up Here' for the anthology -- a visual novel about a chipmunk having an existential crisis.
BOOMECH Demo (2021)
Developed for the 2021 MechJam II, I worked alongside the creator to brainstorm and develop the narrative for this cyberpunk shooter and city defense game. I also as wrote scripts and assisted in producing the voice-over work. The game took fifth place overall out of 77 entries, and was awarded second place in audio.
Manikin Demo (2020)
A demo for a choose-your-own-adventure chat thriller/mystery game in the vein of Lifeline. The player communicates via text with their mom as she untangles a twisted web of lies in their Maritime village.
This game (created independently with the use of a Twine template from @shindags) was displayed in the Spring Thing interactive fiction competition 'Back Garden' and was awarded 'Most Potential', 'Creepiest Plot', and 'Best Mom' by the audience. I designed, wrote, and developed the game.

This project, which I co-designed and wrote, ranked in the top ten games of the third Historically Accurate Game Jam.
