About Me
My Story
I am a self-confessed board game geek. Since a kid I was always playing board games and creating my own fantasy worlds in my school exercise books when I should have been studying!
After 'growing up' I re-discovered my interest and now have started to enjoy presenting some of my ideas to a wider audience and enjoying the productive process of development and design.
​
Cortex Vertex Board Games was born out of that interest with a simple desire to bring new, novel game ideas to the public and spread some joy and fun while doing so.
