Hello there! I’m a video games producer. In my 15+ years in the industry, I went from coding, game design, and running a game studio to publishing, venture, and consulting.
My passion is about working with talented gamedev teams and helping them achieve their creative ambition.
Drop me a line.
Work
👷🏼♂️ I’m a Co-Founder & CEO at Forklift, a publisher dedicated to smart, deep, systemic video games. If you have a game to pitch, reach out here.
🤝 I do a bit of consulting and advise on fundraising, pitching, production, marketing, and other exciting stuff. More on that below 👇
🏗️ In a previous chapter, I had been Venture Partner at The Games Fund, overseeing the PC/Console track. Before that, as EP & Publishing Director at tinyBuild, I was running the publishing pipeline, production and marketing.
⏳ A thousand years ago (give or take), I programmed games for PS2. Then I founded a mobile gaming studio, A‑Steroids, which created Underworld, an innovative geo-location based MMO, and other games.
🎮 You may have played some of the games I worked on: Pathologic 2, Hellpoint, Cartel Tycoon, Not For Broadcast, Potion Craft, Totally Reliable Delivery Service, Cash Cleaner Simulator, and others.
Some of the advisory stuff I did recently:
Created the announcement plan for an upcoming AA adventure game
Refined the go-to-market strategy for a self-publishing indie team
Helped choose the right publishing partner and negotiate favorable terms
Provided ongoing support in business development, production & marketing
Helped teams prepare for meetings with publishers and investors
Reviewed and polished a few game pitches
If you think I can help, drop me a line or reach out via LinkedIn.

Life
I’m originally from the 🌊 Baltic shores of Lithuania, currently living in 🌴 Barcelona.
I speak 🇬🇧 English, 🇷🇺 Russian, 🇱🇹 Lithuanian, and I’d be very excited to chat with you in 🇪🇸 Spanish.
🎮 I play everything from indies to AAA, but there’s a special place in my library for strategy & simulation games.
🎧 I do an occasional DJ gig, play tennis, sail, and travel a lot. Most of that stuff goes to my Instagram and Twitter.
