One hobby has been a constant companion my entire life: Gaming.

I use gaming as a very inclusive term: I love video games, board games, tabletop roleplaying games, war games, guessing games, drinking games, game shows, and puzzles. Anything that stretches your mind while you are having fun.

When I grow up, I want to be a game developer. Or maybe an astronaut. In the mean time, I enjoy both playing games and designing games to play with my friends.
