I woke up in the middle of the night on New Year’s Eve with a flash of inspiration – with 52 weeks in a year and 52 cards in a deck (plus a couple Jokers)…it’s the perfect excuse to try writing a song each week with the Troubadeck!

Film Score Fest has branched out from Minnesota to Colorado!

In September, I started a new full-time job as Game Design Manager at Asmodee, helping make board games for Z-Man Games, Office Dog Games, and Unexpected Games.

I’m thrilled to share that my game Ringyō is being published by Paverson Games!

Gen Con 2025 was the big release of my new trick-taking card game Lunar Skyline with Dead Alive Games!

My new card game Surplus of Sloths starts crowdfunding at noon today!

We had so many great films created for Film Score Fest this year, and the judges chose 24 films to premiere with the orchestra.

After three of my film scores premiered at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Film Fest (The Fishing Hat Bandit, LUKi & the Lights, and Rectangles), I started taking stock of all the music I have sitting on my hard drives.

The game ideas have really been flowing this past year!

My love of music, games, and drawing are all coming together in this new project I’ve been working on – The Troubadeck!
