Portfolio

As a writer, I often operate character-first, under the belief that it is character all the way down — after all, to understand a character, understanding how their setting has shaped them is simply part and parcel. No aspect of storytelling exists in a vacuum.

As part of the Destiny 2 team since February 2022, releases I have contributed to substantially include:

• Monument of Triumph
• The Edge of Fate
• Episode: Heresy
• The Final Shape
• Lightfall

I contributed to other releases in smaller ways, notably Renegades with editorial feedback and systems support, and Witch Queen with a single lorebook, early in my career as a freelancer.

Writing samples for specific applications available upon request.

The below is not an exhaustive list by any means, but here are some of what I consider my greatest narrative hits.
