"I work with Chris to help me move forward in my business, and I've probably saved years of running off in unhelpful directions. His sharp and targeted questions (coming from a large and diverse amount of knowledge and experience) have yielded many helpful insights and given me a sense of momentum which was missing before I met him."

"Over the past few months Chris transformed my game development goals from vague fantasy to concrete reality with a timeline. Each session we review the current state and schedule, and his candid feedback uncovers hidden problems that would have caused wasted effort. Prioritization, scheduling strategy, being more efficient, and working with constraints are his specialty. Having easily saved me years of effort through tough decisions he surfaced, it's the best dollar-for-value I've spent on my game so far. Chris has been amazingly helpful and took this project from a complete standstill - on a trajectory to be completed in 10 years - to on a path to getting a demo out soon and shipping within a reasonable amount of time. It’s been hugely valuable."

• We'll start with a free call to discuss what you're doing. I'll come up with 2-3 options so you can pick what's best for your budget and goals.

• I don't do long-term contracts, minimum periods, or have a new client starting fee. You fully own all your work even if I assist you with it, I don't want shared ownership or profits.

• I'll refund your last session if it ever doesn't meet your expectations. I reserve the right to discontinue at any time if I no longer think I'm a right match.

I’m mainly known for training game developers (primarily in programming, technical game design, solo/small team producer skills, or youth lessons), however I also do consulting outside of games, based on more than a decade of experience with -

• Bootstrapped Entrepreneurship: Retaining ownership by funding the initial runway sustainably through high rates for custom work that can inform the creation of products and services scaling to serve more people's real needs. I can help you maintain focus on what demonstrably serves customers and end users—without winding up distracted or derailed by the interests of investors, sponsors, or big companies that acquire businesses to miuse the brand, customer data, or pivot to destructive monetization practices.
• Education/Info Products and Services: I've turned methods into best-selling and top reviewed video courses, ebooks, audiobooks, and membership programs. If you have a better way to do something, I'll help you get more people doing it your better way.
• Audience Building: I've grown reach through an industry podcast for 10 years, YouTube (100k/silver award), dozens of public speaking engagements, and running events related enough for promotions, but dynamic enough to prevent audience capture. If you want to build following while maintaining freedom to evolve your work staying true to your principles, I'll draw from my experience to do what I can to help your odds of making progress on your goals sooner and at a higher level.
