Excited to join @beyondframes.bsky.social as their new Community Manager! 😍

Working on TMNT: Empire City is genuinely a dream, and I’ve been very lucky to get that chance.

Big thanks to Maeva, Ace, and Annika for sharing their toys with me.

Turtle Power, friends 🍕🐢
After today myself (and a lot of @cortopia.com) are out for the winter break. See you (professionally) in 2026 for the Year of the Turtle 😉 Now, time for recreational gaming, reading, and a house move 🫠

I sometimes get to pitch names for games and updates.

My suggestion was in the final two for Synapse while at nDreams. It was very nearly “Abstraction.” So close.

I’ll take the team picking my name for the new GORN 2 update as a win!

Long live “Dungeon Brawler.” Gotta love a play on words 💪
Go beyond the arena in GORN 2's latest update!

Conquer a labyrinth filled with formidable foes.

Includes:
🏰 Dungeon Crawler Mode
🏒 6 News Weapons
🧊 New Hazards and Effects
⬆️ The Ability to Jump (gasp)

Available now on Meta Quest, PS VR2, and Steam

[⚠️TW: Medical] Could have done without a Sunday evening trip to A&E 🫠

Three nurses, a doctor, and a vein scanner to get blood out of me.

Clearly don’t like sharing…

My wife started crochet a couple months ago and now she’s making stuff like this…it’s very impressive! 😍

Little ode to my TMNT obsession and my work at @beyondframes.bsky.social 💚

Gotta love Leo ⚔️

Been in the games industry a bit longer than this, but five years ago I made the switch to become a Community Manager 👀

Cannot believe how fast that time has gone and all of the projects I’ve contributed to since.

Getting to do it now at @beyondframes.bsky.social has been ✨AMAZING✨

So, my daughter got her first crush and it’s Jinu from KPop Demon Hunters…

She’s said “He’s got such nice hair and a beautiful voice. I love him.”

My wife has been learning how to crochet 🧶

She’s gotten really good and picked it up so impressively quick.

She’s just presented me with a homemade Christmas stocking and I think it might be the most adorable thing.

Ordered my wife a book.

The last major update for Halo Infinite and the end of an era.

A great example of turning it around post launch with community feedback.

Halo Infinite multiplayer is not just some of the best in the series, it’s some of the best multiplayer in games, period 👏

Happy 21st, Killzone 🎉

I can’t believe it’s been a year since we launched Killzine: A Killzone Fanzine and hosted the KILLONE20YEARS multiplayer event.

We’d love to see the series return, but until then, thanks to Guerrilla and PlayStation past and present for all the memories 🫂🤍

As a parent of young kids who rely on their body clock to wake up…I think we should ban daylight savings.

My PS5 DualSense fell off the entertainment unit last night and now it has THE WORST stick drift and is pretty much unusable...

The week can only get better (already) 😵

Antonela set such a high bar for community work throughout her time at 505, and has influenced others (including me) being able to break into and succeed in games.

I actually wrote up my experience recently (so, its good timing). playyour.games/taking-control/

Very excited to have my first piece up on @uploadvr.com 😍

I was actually a games journalist before becoming a Community Manager, and its been really fun to flex those muscles again.

Thanks to @henrystockdale.com and @glitchfandango.bsky.social for the opportunity.

I'm working on a little something and I need feel good, positive stories from in and around games to work with.

Whether it's a personal story or something you've seen within the games communities you're active in, I want to hear about it!

Absolute pleasure getting to guest on @crossbuttonvr.bsky.social and talk to Reece all about my career (so far) and the work we did for Killzone's 20th anniversary.

If you're a fan of video games and virtual reality, be sure to go give him a follow/sub ❤️
