SHORT SUMMARY
Hi! I'm James Finkel. I am a Game Designer and Software Engineer currently based out of Pittsburgh, PA.
I enjoy developing tabletop and digital game prototypes as well as participating in the Pittsburgh Magic: The Gathering scene. I am a member of the Magic: The Gathering Club at Carnegie Mellon University and compete in tournaments during my free time.
I also help run The Unfriendly Brawl.
Some of the biggest influences on my interest in developing games for a living have been competing with my family and playing games with my partner, Meg.
