Her contributions to Sea of Legends helped refine and inspire the voice of our core characters. She brings a fresh perspective and a deep curiosity to her work, making her an asset to any project she's on.”

— Ryan Schapals, Guildhall Studios

“Nell is an extremely talented and professional writer. I hired her for a project with extremely limited space constraints and she delivered a deep and complex game that felt completely unburdened by the challenge. She was also prompt in her communication and hit every deadline.

“I chose her for my project because I think she has a unique voice that deserves more opportunities to shine. I was not disappointed.”

— James D’Amato, One Shot Network

“Nell’s experience as a dramaturg and theatremaker shines in the way she not only tells stories, but sets up scaffolding for the stories that she invites others to tell. She has a knack for leaning into design constraints and pushing them in fresh and inventive ways that spark delight. Her design sensibility is filled with color and charm.”

— Caro Asercion, Game Designer

“Nell is a joy to work with and exceedingly professional. When given an assignment, Nell quickly grasps the task at hand and brings her own expansive personal knowledge to the situation. Nell can take a job from start to finish with very minimal supervision, giving you not only what you wanted, but things you did not realize you needed. She is thorough, thoughtful, and has precise and exacting attention to detail not found in many freelancers. Nell cares about the projects she works on and gives 110% to them as if it is her own. In every aspect, Nell is a valued member of any creative team.“

— Jerry D. Grayson, Khepera Publishing

“I asked Nell to be a stretch goal writer on Quietus on the strength of her game Home Again, and on hearing her pitch for a scenario, was so immediately excited by the idea that I put her as the first stretch goal author to help ensure we got to include it. Her writing is characterful, emotional and full of empathy and culture and I look forward to working with her again.”
