My name is Nicolas Oueijan and I wear many hats. I am the founder of the game development company Strafe Studios, and have managed to design/engineer my way through architecture, video games, programming, interactive art installations, ambient music composition, digital fabrication, furniture, VR, AR, bronze casting, mobile apps, material systems, and everything from board games to space walks. I carry a Masters of Design Studies Technology from the Harvard Graduate School of Design and a Bachelors of Architecture from the University of Southern California (USC). I love investigating the role of navigation, play and virtuality in reshaping our environments and preconceived notions of space. How can we use games, technology, and design to challenge challenge our understandings of the world around us?

I have always believed in the power of making (start your project already!) and I have always believed in fun.

Go ahead and talk to me - I talk back.
