A Slightly Less Brief History of My Entire Life
Ok, jokes aside, I’ve been playing and enjoying video games for as long as I can remember, always seeking to become a game dev myself. Once I hit high school in 2016, I was finally able to start specializing in classes that would let me better understand game development, primarily programming and psychology, at my local college during the same time (even managing to score an Associate’s before I graduated). After that, I started attending DigiPen Institute Technology in 2020, and graduated with a Bachelor’s in Game Design in 2024.
My main goal as a developer is to take that joy I feel playing games and pass it on to the people that play my games. If a game I make is able to make even one person happy, that’s a win in my book.
Cage of the Week
While I was attending DigiPen, I hosted Cage of the Week, the club where we watched Nicolas Cage movies every week. Cage is a meme and all, but the guy genuinely puts his all into every performance he gives, and I can respect the heck out of that.
My favorite performances of his are from Willy’s Wonderland, Con Air, Vampire’s Kiss, and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.

The latest edition of the Kirby Lore Chart
Kirby Lore Chart
An actually readable version can be found here.
This is the fifth version of my Kirby Lore Chart, modified from Version 4 after finishing my quest to play every single Kirby game and consulting the premier Kirby lore expert, Meteorz. This version is also moreso focused on style and presentability, as I wanted to make a print/poster of it once I had finally considered it “done.” As well as series knowledge, creating this absolute behemoth required a ton of research involving multiple wikis and old, deleted Miiverse posts. I also took in some information and suggestions from posts of previous versions of the chart. I know Kirby lore isn’t meant to be looked into too deeply, but that’s the joke!
Some of my favorite lore bits are:
-Magolor wants you, the player, to give him your money
-The real-life Kirby 30th Anniversary Concert heavily implied that the setting of Kirby and the Forgotten Land is Earth via a singer named Neichel
-Zan Partizanne has given most supporting characters nicknames while she was the spokesperson for the Kirby JP Twitter. In return, Magolor gave her a nickname once he took over the position
-Taranza is a simp
-Goku is in here somewhere; good luck finding him!
Art
I could dedicate an entire page to this (heck, I DID on the old version of this website), but I enjoy making art as a hobby. I’m nowhere near professional-level (aside from maybe spritework), but I enjoy honing my craft and making cool stuff.
The piece to the right is of two characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, that being Artifice Aion (the final boss) and Captain Padraig, a one-off early-game NPC boss that the fanbase (myself included) latched onto for some inexplicable reason.
“Show me why you think you can take me!”
