Available to hire
Hi, I’m Nick Mastrokolias, a Greek game designer with 14 years of championship sailing. Those years taught me commitment, discipline, and goal-setting, which I bring to every project. My passion for gaming and e-sports highlights teamwork and collaboration, and traveling abroad fuels my curiosity and love for learning. I’m communicative, forward-thinking, and always seeking self-improvement. My hobbies include painting, beach volleyball, tabletop games, and role-playing games. I quickly absorb new knowledge and adapt to any environment.
I’m excited to combine design thinking with storytelling to create engaging experiences for players. My background spans game design, board game concepts, and educational projects, and I enjoy mentoring teams, organizing events, and delivering thoughtful, user-centered design solutions.
