Head of Growth

COO at Metafy l VP at Dreamcraft Ventures l Advisor l Operator l Founder of GamerzClass

I believe founders deserve a partner who values their legacy as much as their product. Too often, great gaming platforms plateau, not because they lack vision, but because scaling requires a different kind of playbook. 

Over the past decade, I’ve founded, operated, and grown businesses across gaming, creator tech, and community platforms. My work has always centered on the same principles: build useful products, protect what matters, and scale in a way that lasts.

Founded GamerzClass, a learning platform for competitive gamers focused on high-quality content and creator-first experiences.

Joined Metafy as COO post-acquisition, where I helped evolve the product, team, and operations to support a growing global user base.

Partnered with the Futbin team during their transition into a larger group, focusing on post-transaction strategy and long-term platform health.

Rebuilt Renderz.app into a utility platform that helps players get more out of the games they love, with a focus on simplicity, speed, and community trust.

Acquired Nexus Mods, a cornerstone of modding in gaming, and now guiding its next chapter with Chosen, where we help founder-led platforms break through the next stage of growth, without compromising what made them special.

Now building Chosen, where we help founder-led platforms break through the next stage of growth, without compromising what made them special.

If you’re building something meaningful in gaming or community and want a partner who’s walked the path, I’d love to connect.

I founded chosen to be the buyer I wish existed when I sold my own company.

Every acquisition we make strengthens the collective, from Nexus Mods to what comes next.

If you intro me to a founder we end up acquiring, I’ll personally send you $50k as a thank you.

Simple as that. DM open.

I buy, build and grow gaming networks @ Chosen

I received a Health Potion from the Nexus Mods community this week 🧪

No fancy award or investor report could ever top that.

This is what it means to be community-led. It’s not just about building products, it’s about building relationships, giving back, and remembering that the value we create only matters if it gives energy to the people who power it.

The note that came with it reminded me: sometimes fixing a bug or answering a support ticket doesn’t feel world-changing. But for someone out there, it just might be.

At Nexus, we don’t just build for the community, we create with it.

And sometimes, they send potions ❤️

We’ve added Emma Gomersall to the team at Nexus Mods as our new Head of People & Culture.

2026 is already shaping up to be wild, with a lot of new hires coming in and big plans ahead. 10 new hires for Q1 next year. 

Keep an eye on her profile over the next few weeks. We’re not slowing down.

#Nexus #Chosen

Nexus Mods continues to grow fast. 

Two new roles are open at Nexus Mods for people who love gaming, community, and helping others get the most out of modding.

Join the movement! Link to hires in comments.
