My Puzzles

I have enjoyed puzzles all of my life. As a kid, I loved Games Magazine, where I first learned about cryptic crossword puzzles, a style that my wordplay oriented mind loved. As a college student at Stanford, I fell in love with The Game, a 24+-hour puzzle hunt with all manner of puzzles that sent you to various locations, and after college, I helped run quite a few of these for an avid community of puzzlers. Working at Shinteki, I helped run shorter versions of such events for conferences and companies. I have also played in and helped run the MIT Mystery Hunt, a hard-core, multi-day puzzle competition, and over the years, I have created several variety cryptic crossword puzzles, including a couple that were published in the National Puzzlers League's magazine, Enigma. Please enjoy my puzzles below, and feel free to ask me for hints or solutions.
