Experience across teams including
Does your game show any of these symptoms?
The team keeps reopening the same decision.
I expose the disagreement and establish criteria the team can use to move forward.

I turn intent into a testable player outcome and a workable scope.
The game works, but something does not add up.
I identify the structural problem and prioritize what should change first.
