Editor/Podcast Co-Host/Content Creator - Crashing Game Night

I have been hooked on video games since the original Nintendo, but Playstation made me a hardcore gamer. My love of gaming has helped grow my love for movies. Don’t let anyone tell you that Super Mario Bros was a bad movie.

My favorite movie : John Wick Trilogy

My favorite game: Red Dead Redemption 2

My favorite game night game: Settlers Of Catan
