Biography

Marketing practitioner and storyteller with a passion for games and videogames. Dreaming to contribute in marketing and worldbuilding for lore-heavy games that can make others experience otherworldly scenarios and stories. I have a Marketing and Branding academic background, with experience in relationship management, fundraising, PR, business development and event management. Moreover, I have been a DM for pen&paper RPGs for the past 8 years, gaining experience in storytelling that allow me to see weak points in narrations, story structure, plotholes and market potential.
