What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in game development where I can drive full-cycle projects, scale teams, own product strategy, and deliver commercially successful games with strong collaboration.

Experienced Game Producer and Project Manager with a strong background in full-cycle development, team leadership, project architecture, and stakeholder communication. Skilled in building and scaling game development teams from scratch and leading cross-functional collaboration in both in-house and outsourcing environments.

Over the past 17+ years, I’ve successfully launched 35+ games across PC, mobile, and web platforms, including casual (HOPA, match-3, time management), hyper-casual, adventure, shooter (FPS/TPS), board games, and F2P titles. Whether working full-time or remotely, I bring structure, ownership, and flexibility managing full production or driving specific features as needed.

My focus is to build engaging, commercially successful games that resonate with players. I deliver results on time, on budget. I lead teams effectively, drive collaboration, and stay hands-on with live ops, monetization strategy, and core/system design.
