My CV

Professional Experience

Sam began as a freelance games journalist before entering the industry as Game & Narrative Designer Ludico, a groundbreaking educational games initiative by King's College London. After the pandemic, he became a designer at Supermassive Games, the esteemed horror studio behind The Dark Pictures series.

Sam's most recent credit is as a designer on Supermassive Games' The Casting of Frank Stone. As of 2024, he is eagerly seeking new opportunities.

With two Master's degrees, one in Creative Writing from the University of Essex and another in Game Design & Development from the National Film & Television School, Sam is uniquely equipped to design anything from a complex narrative game to a casual mobile title.

Personal Development

Sam has a punchy, character-focused writing style inspired by the work of Takumi Miyajima (Tales of Symphonia) and Amy Hennig (The Legacy of Kain). This, combined with his boundless enthusiasm for fun and fantasy, makes him adept at designing anything from a complex narrative to a casual mobile title.

In addition to his professional design work, Sam has provided voice overs and testing for various web projects: including PlotTwist Studios' Women of Xal and the First Aid Spray Podcast.

Sam has also branched out into art and animation. Inspired by the work of artist Kazuma Kaneko (Shin Megami Tensei), he has an enthusiastic adoration for heroes, magic, and monsters.

Sam holds two Master's Degrees, one in Game Design & Development from the National Film & Television School and another in Creative Writing from the University of Essex.

He is an avid baker, has mostly committed the script of Monty Python and the Holy Grail to memory, and currently serves as the Forever DM for his Dungeons & Dragons party. If you find him without a mug of Yorkshire Tea nearby, that's probably a sign that something's gone wrong with the universe.
