Hi, I’m Rylan! As with many lifelong fans of the medium, some of my earliest, most vivid memories revolve, unsurprisingly, around games, whether it be standing in line until midnight to pick up a newly released title or tearing open a new console on Christmas morning. Even during those early days, I found myself drawn towards narrative experiences — typically RPGs or action-adventure games — rife with compelling characters and set in immersive worlds. It didn’t take long before I knew, despite not knowing where to even start, that I wanted to someday pursue a career in the captivating field of interactive entertainment.

Currently, I work as an Associate Designer: Missions at Rockstar Games. Prior to that, I was a QA Tester at Naughty Dog, where I contributed to The Last of Us Part II Remastered and The Last of Us Part I.
