Director Business Development knowledge of both the production and retail aspects of the entertainment software industry. I first stepped down this career path as an independent videogame retail owner in 1989 with a store called Knights Video Games and later progressed to buyer for a major videogame retail chain.

At Capcom I handled business development and developer relations, playing a key role in acquiring product as well as assisting Capcom in the process of entering the world of mobile entertainment. I now leverage my publisher experience for Flashman and its clients, my responsibilities are to manage and be responsible for clients, primarily game developers - helping them build their business over a multi-year time period through professional business development, helping with game idea selection and concept submissions, project budgets, company finance and cash flow management, marketing direction, publisher and first party relationships.
I was involved in the acquisition and evaluation of dozens of titles while at Capcom.
