About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm a math grad trying to make games in Toronto. Hoping to meet people who can tell me how travelling works.

ABOUT ME

I'm a dabbler and an idealist. I'm trying to make that work for me with what I do, which is making games.

I'm a over-worked person who worries too much about stuff. I'm working on that. Fortunately meanwhile people seem to derive pleasure from my grumblings.

I like ideas and argument and phrase-making.

I like teasing out simple things about complicated things.

I like it when people force me to say "... well played, old bean."

I'm a terrified 95 year old man when it comes to traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Si, abbiamo un anima. Ma è fatta di tanti piccoli robot.

/

Yes, we have a soul. But it’s made of lots of tiny robots.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The sun setting on the west coast of Newfoundland.

I'm guessing people on this site can probably top that pretty easily, but, was pretty big for me at the time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Since, for some reason, I've decided to work pretty much continuously since I started school, I like hearing from people who are travelling.

It seems a bit magical to me.

I'm badly in need of advice and a kick out the door.
