Vlad has been a gamer since 2002, devouring Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike Source like it was a nutritious meal. Since then he has broadened his horizons to different styles of games and storytelling tools. Whether it be a first person shooter like Rainbow Six Siege or a grand strategy game like Europa Universalis IV, he will try to find every strategy and tool to become better.
He has spent a lot of time writing, whether it be reviews for online magazines, creative fiction as a hobby and an outlet, or research papers for a University setting, writing has always been a major part of his life. When he is not writing or playing video games, Vlad spends a lot of time reading, wandering the wonderful city he lives in, and watching television and movies.
