I'm a...

Hi, I’m Darryl.

The game industry is one of the most gatekept industries out there. I’m here to change that.

​

I’ve spent 16+ years making games, from scrappy indie teams to AAA studios, including Ubisoft, NetEase and D-Cell Games, and titles like South Park: The Fractured but Whole and UNBEATABLE. Along the way, I shipped over 9 games and started my own studio from the ground up.

​

No question goes unanswered and no topic is off the table. Whether you’re just getting your feet wet or you’re already a level 80 producer, my door is open for coaching, mentorship, resume reviews, career advice and anything in between.

​

I want to leave this industry better than I found it, and by helping you, I’m already halfway there.

Buy me a coffee

My coaching for students is always free. If a session helped you and you'd like to pay it forward, any amount keeps the coffee (and the coop) going. No pressure, ever.
