Five years building esports studios, leagues and youth programs in Connecticut, and a consulting practice that puts that operating experience inside other organizations. Most nights this November I am live on Twitch, building the stream in the open.
Rocket League with my kid, Counter-Strike with friends, and nights where I just work with chat open. The overlays, the camera, the whole setup is being built one stream at a time, on stream. Follow and the ping tells you when I am on.
Anchored in gaming and esports: studios, leagues, teams, youth and collegiate programs, and the companies that serve them. I work embedded alongside founders and leadership teams to turn priorities into organized, accountable execution, and I stay through implementation. Outside the industry by decision, not by default.
If you have watched the stream, you have seen how I work. If you want that inside your organization, the first conversation is free and short.

In 2021 Emily and I co-founded Affinity Esports and grew it to three Connecticut studios and a mobile program. I co-founded Connecticut Esports, now forming as a nonprofit, and I teach esports management at Post University.
I studied graphic design at Barry University, where I also played Division II soccer. I have raised money for the Jordan Porco Foundation, the Alzheimer's Association, Barry University and Movember, and as part of a team more than $100,000 for blood cancer research through a semi-annual charity soccer tournament. I have donated my hair three times for children who need wigs.
I am a father of two who game. That is most of why any of this exists.

Every November I grow the moustache and raise for men's health: mental health, suicide prevention, prostate and testicular cancer. This year the figure sits here, in public, and the stream carries it. The button goes to my Movember campaign page on Tiltify; nothing passes through this site.
