(Eximius eSports is one of the first gaming organizations in the United States of America)

Loved traveling the country being pro, I decided to retire in 2008 when the 1st recession hit and sponsors struggled getting money to the organization. So with the achievements and accolades we had we decided it was time to move on. I now have a son who I focus all of my attention on.

1995-2008


I am the owner of a gaming organization called Eximius eSports. It is one of the first premiere eSports organizations in North America and the United States.

I was an assistant GM for the Chicago Chimera under Brian "DKT" Flander. Brian was stepping down as GM and I was to be named new GM, but the league shut its doors. I was devastated. After the collapse of the Championship Gaming Series my drive for eSports was diminishing quickly. I had one more last go at Eximius Sports only to find out that sponsors were even tougher to come by with a economy that was on a downfall. I decided to retire from eSports with my head held high.
