GAME DESIGN AND EDUCATION

In my work as a game designer I mainly focus on bringing people and games together. From creating engaging social gaming experiences to design workshops to challenging jams. I enjoy working with people of any age and skill level, and I love creating events and spaces in which gaming becomes a creative and social experience.

As a freelance media and museum educator I hold workshops, lectures and teach classes for teenagers and adults on different conferences, in museums and schools.

Impressions

For A MAZE. and the Leibniz Association I organized and led together with Jana Reinhard the Online Museums Game Jam 2021. We had participants from different countries and couldn’t meet in person. So we did small warm ups like showing up in strange costumes to bring more fun into the event which glued us for 3 days in front of our computers.

In 2017 we released the location based Mobile Game “Die Legende der Goldenen Konsole” which is playable inside the Computer Games Museum in Berlin.

This role playing card game was designed to be a conversation starter at game related events. It allowed visitors to slip into different roles and engage in playful interaction. (client: Gamestorm / A MAZE.)
