About Me

Hey there, I'm Ryan! I'm a Level Designer at Airship Syndicate where I shipped Wayfinder—a multiplayer third-person ARPG—and am currently contributing to an unannounced isometric RPG. I have designed open world environments and scripted interactive gameplay systems across FPS, MMO-lite, and ARPG genres. I specialize in rapid prototyping with UE5/Blueprint systems, custom tool development, and cross-functional collaboration.

I began learning Level Design while working full-time as a Full Stack Web Developer, spending nights and weekends on game development projects. My technical background gives me a strong foundation for building internal tools and environmental gameplay systems. I'm particularly passionate about using technology to make the "impossible" feel achievable.

Love collaborating and building relationships with other designers? Me too! Whether that means solving shared design challenges, writing documentation, or providing technical support across teams. So, if you're working on something that requires both artistic and technical execution, I'd love to hear about it and talk about how I can help.
