I'll be updating my portfolio as I go, as well as creating more videos on YouTube and social media. Even if you just want to see a guy spout nonsense about games, come say hello.

In light of being laid off from TheGamer today, I don't intend to let my passions die out. I'll continue to create work independently, and keep that excitement for whatever opportunities come my way in the future.
This was a dream career, and I'm not done with it yet.
