Microbadge: GeekVideos creatorMicrobadge: I love South KoreaMicrobadge: Jack Vasel Memorial FundMicrobadge: Ultimate ReviewerMicrobadge: The Dice Tower Gaming Awards fan

I like to play games, period. And I want as many people in the world to enjoy doing that also. So I review a few games here and there, have a couple of podcasts or so, and just spend much of my day playing games. (well, in my perfect world - I actually spend much of a day editing).

I grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania, went to college in Florida, moved to South Korea for a decade to teach English and pastor, and now reside in Homestead, Florida - as a full-time board game reviewer.

At my website, www.dicetower.com, you can find a TON of video reviews, top ten lists, our show Dice Tower, and more. We just love games!
