During my senior year at the University of Santa Cruz, California, I served as the narrative lead for Crowd Surfers, a 100% student-developed game created by the Game Design and Art Collaboration (GDA). Our team consisted of roughly 107 members split across six departments, with the writing department I oversaw consisting of around 15-20 members.

I held a very diverse set of responsibilities during development, ranging from narrative design and writing, all the way to level optimization and lighting art. Due to the nature of student clubs, it was beneficial for me to remain flexible and fill any gaps created by temporary absences. My narrative work included outlining the three-act structure of the main script, aligning character arcs thematically with the central narrative, and writing dialogue for both the main story as well as post-game dialogue revolving around the character "Minny".
