Narrative Designer • Game Writer • Secret Weapon

Narrative Designer

Hey, I'm Geoffrey! For almost 15 years, I've been writing game narratives for major studios and awesome indies around the world from my Los Angeles office. Past clients include Ubisoft, Capcom, and Square Enix. The first game I ever designed was on a paper diner placemat when I was 7 years old. Inspired by my Game Boy, I drew tiny spaceships, monsters, explosions. Soon, I traded crayons for a keyboard. I've crafted stories for a wide range of gaming platforms: console, mobile, tabletop, web – even robots! But I still draw maps by hand, because I'm old school like that.

These are a few of my favorite game projects I’ve recently shipped. I’m working on a portfolio for my writing credits in other “medias,” like comics, animation, and books.

Role: Game Writer

Disney Wonderful Worlds is a Match-3 puzzle game where players team up with their favorite animated characters to build and customize their own Disney Park. I wrote the missions and quests in Toy Story Land, giving voice to Woody, Buzz, Jessie, Rex, and Forky. I also contributed to Adventureland’s quests. As a lifelong Disney parks fan, this project was an “astro blast” to work on.

The dev team was interviewed on the official PlayStation blog.
