Upgraded my router to WiFi 7 / 10gb. Ran Ethernet cable under my house to bring hardwire to all the rooms. Time to find a new home project.

Lowpoly'ing sculpted rocks is going to be the bane of my existence.

Artstation portfolio updated. Resume updated. Applied at places. In talks with a potential employer. Crossing my fingers.

Finished 5-feat Pantheon last night!! GGs team! (No cheese btw🤐) This feels bittersweet cause there’s only a handful of challenges left that I’d like to do. 😭😭😭

If it wasn’t the end before, it is now. All I can say is thank you. The industry is unlikely to keep you waiting for long. Everyone knows who you are and what you can do, and more importantly they know the hand you have been dealt. Enjoy your rests, you legends. 🫡

I've been hit by the Bungie layoffs as a contractor today alongside so many amazing talented, good-hearted co-workers of mine. I'm so proud of the work we all did on Destiny 2 and Marathon with the time we had.💚

Basically the whole D2 Sandbox team is gone, myself included. The good news is if you liked the way Destiny felt to shoot and play, there’s going to be a lot of great designers in the market looking to help other games step it up.

It’s been one hell of a ride, y’all. I have been impacted by today’s layoffs. I’m not sure what to say other than thank you so much for being a part of our worlds. I am so beyond grateful to have contributed to a tiny part of them. I hope they inspired you. Ad Astra, Et Ultra.

Unfortunately my position was affected by this round of layoffs. My watch has ended as a QA Engineer - 4 years 8 months of full time employment + another 9 months of Contract QA work. 4 months short of a wicked shield to help celebrate my accomplishments 😅

Got hit by layoffs today, most of RaD was hit. It's been incredible to work on so many amazing experiences with so many great people. That was the best team at the studio for sure. Culture, skill, and collaboration. I'll miss it.

Today marks my last day at Bungie. Even in my short time here, it was a dream to work with so many incredible people on a game we all loved. I will cherish the time I had and wouldn’t trade it for anything else. Thank you everyone that has been there for me and thank you Destiny

After nearly 4 years at Bungie, my role has been eliminated as of today. It has truly been a pleasure to have worked on Marathon and Destiny with such talented individuals for so long. Testing at Bungie really was different, but I'm going to miss my team the most 💙💚

And with that, it looks like my time with Bungie has come to an end. It's been a pleasure, and I'll have more to say and show off later. This job was a dream I still can't believe came true. Bungie Strong Destiny Forever

Bungie friends, please reach out whether you are affected or not if you need anything. Having gone through this twice recently in various forms I know how it is, and I’m happy to talk/listen/hang out.

Pantheon 2 is the last thing I will have worked on at Bungie. Despite everything it has been an honor to work on Destiny 2. Please know with deep sincerity that we wanted more than anything to make you smile. See you starside, Guardians

I'm impacted by today's layoffs, as is essentially the entire Destiny VFX team, leads and all. It was a good half decade, Bungie.
