About Me

Hi – I’m Austin – a casual gamer and cognitive scientist who is fascinated by using games as a vehicle for connecting with one another, learning about different cultures, and better understanding the ways we think. 

I started M&B as a passion project to explore this confluence and create a dialogue. I have a background in Electrical Engineering and received my graduate degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Education in Mind, Brain, & Education.
