John’s passion for design and digital media started in the 70’s developing his game ideas on a TRS-80 CoCo. After high school he started Say Design, a creative design and multimedia studio in Silicon Valley. Before the casual game boom, Say began to create innovative Flash games (including the very first Flash game called A-Blast) and shifted focus to casual to casual-core games for Web, Download and Consoles, MMORPG And Virtual Worlds as well as large educational productions for Schools and Universities alike. During that time John has designed and developed many award winning interactive games for various brands, publishers and internal IP.
