            "I am a strong believer in the concept of games as art and feel that we can have fun, meaningful and artistic games. My focus and passion is largely on Narrative and story and its role in developing meaningful game play. My other passions lie in the realm of reusable and elegant OO code and teaching artists and designers to code."
