While new to the team in 2025, Andre is a veteran in the board game industry.Born and raised in sweet-home Minnesota, his interest sparked in the 80's when Andre started playing games like Dungeons & Dragons and Warhammer while in elementary school. Still today, Andre is a dedicated player of board games and role-playing games each week, always finding the time for both market research and fun. He's also an avid miniature painter with many examples of his work available on request. 

When he isn't surrounded by paints, miniatures, and games he is a devoted Husband of one, Father of five, and Grandfather of three. Last, but certainly not least, he has a loyal dachshund named "Buddy" who is the very best boy.

In her leisure time, Hero enjoys creating gaming content on YouTube, participating in and attending theatre performances, playing board games, and cooking for her loved ones.

Her passion for video games extends to the competitive scene, where she plays as a Flex main (primarily as a Controller) for the Starlight Foundation's Valorant team. Additionally, she enjoys speedrunning games such as Hollow Knight, Gunfire Reborn, Little Nightmares 2, and Pokémon.

Tim's hobbies include tabletop RPGs, board games, video games, spending time with his family, and optimizing rules for new games to the breaking point.

Becca is one of our classic overachievers. When she isn't cooking for the office or friends, being an amazing dog mom, or teaching dance classes, she is using her “spare time” to complete her MBA. She is always quick to show her enthusiasm for the small things in life... and musical theatre.

When she is not assisting our fearless leader and the organization, she is often found playing board games and video games with her coworkers, and killing people with kindness.

A seasoned buccaneer who is highly skilled in handling the logistics of the high seas, Captain Chris ensures that all the Tycoon's bounty safely and promptly reaches far away lands.

A true New Englander, Shawn is a huge Celtics fan. In fact, when there isn't a game on, you'll often find him on the court in a league of his own! When he's not rebounding the basketball, Shawn loves to be outdoors; taking in the sites of NH, especially in the fall foliage.

Handy as ever, Shawn repairs pinball machines in his spare time! He has 3 of his own that he restores and maintains for the love of it. But most important, is the time he spends with his wife, who has a shared love of anything horror. 

Curator and guardian of the Tabletop Tycoon warehouse, this high-flying hero coordinates a group of adventures to ensure our games get to your table.

A steadfast family man, he enjoys spending time with his wife and son. Whether they are hiking along the trails of New England or gathering around with a bowl of popcorn to watch movie classics.

While he might not be the best Super Smash Bros fighter, his kindness and enthusiasm make him one of the best people to play games with. It should be noted, it is unverified if he has never fought a bear.

Sam joins our team hailing from every corner of New England. Ironically, Sam grew up as an artist in a predominantly athletic boarding school and transferred as an athlete to an arts school. 

Sam's one true hobby is board games; from casual play to game design. This hobby has now become the focus of his career as our resident Board Game Producer. 

You may find Sam crafting spicy pan sheet nachos in his personal time, or playing disc golf with friends and family. 

Born in the port city of New York, Matt was ferreted away into the deep woods of western New Hampshire on his first birthday. Knowing very little of his birthright, he was raised in a humble cottage on the peak of Mount Marlow until he came of age. Without a clear path forward, he found himself taking odd jobs moving material, always making sure the precious cargo gets to its destination. Before long, he found himself in charge of transporting said precious cargo, and whether or not some finds its way into more lucrative places, who’s to say?

A musician in his free time, he joined several bands over the years, most recently in Promise Game as the bassist. He also dabbles in video games, tabletop wargames, and tennis. Naturally adventurous, he lived in Israel and New Zealand for a time but found the need to lay down roots in his middle years. Recently married, with a new purpose, his next chapter is the most exciting: smuggling games to eager fans!

Tristan joined the Tycoon's crew after a lifetime of hopping space ports. Part scientist, part artist, melding function and aesthetic is his specialty. Better than any AI artist! He knows just how to take the crew's harebrained ideas and create something beautiful.

Tristan spends his free time making art, growing green things, cooking delicious foods, and teaching himself new hobbies. He can be found defending the galaxy with his faithful sidekick, the tenured Professor Burlap Bork of the Borkings Institute for Borkology and Pizza.

Stephen's first business cards at age 12 listed him as a Renaissance Man because his curiosity is always leading him into dangerous new places. Whether financially risky (comic collecting), socially inadvisable (ukulele), or hazardous to his very well-being (theatre), he teaches himself whatever skills he needs to leap into each new pursuit. And so Stephen finds himself leaping from Acting to Arts Marketing, from Graphic Design to Games, striving to expand his eclectic expertise, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home, to his out-of-his league wife and two extraordinary kids.

Hailing from Singapore (the greenest city in the world!), Yvonne joins our team and adds in an excellent creative eye. When she's not doing all things graphic design, drawing and illustration, you can often find Yvonne playing Final Fantasy 14, sculpting dolls or writing fictional tales.

Our resident reaper also loves spending time with her family and enjoying coffee shop delights!

Bec is a native New Englander and a resident “Final Girl” who recently returned from a southern carnival led by a mouse before joining the Tabletop team. With her high Charisma score, she is a valuable member of the Sales & Support team. During lunch breaks, she enjoys entertaining her colleagues by playing horror games.

Outside of work, Bec spends her time playing cozy games or watching horror movies with her two cat companions, Ladle and Spatula. She and her cinephile husband often create games to help them decide which movie to watch next. Bec keeps her collection of themed makeup palettes, Barbie dolls, and various entomology oddities in her lair.

Hailing from the often forgotten addendum to New York, Long Island, Bobby started his journey with us as 2025 began. His love for videogames and competition took him to the world of esports, competing professionally in Overwatch and holding many roles as a coach, producer, manager, and on-camera talent. Seeking new challenges, he joined the Tabletop Tycoon team as a Sales and Support Associate, bringing his competitive edge to Sales and his on-camera personality to Support.

When not leading the charge, shield in hand, Bobby spends his time playing video games, board games, and D&D, spending time with his incredible wife and their spoiled cat, and organizing tournaments for his friends to duke it out on a variety of battlefields.

Bio Coming Soon!

Welcome Jon, joining our adventuring party as an apprentice! Hailing from our great Granite State, Jon may not need to travel far, but he has to hone many skills to juggle the diversity and requests of his everyday. His passion for art, design,  and helping others is an excellent match for the position and will prove to be advantageous on this journey. 

When he's not heeding the call of the White Mountains to explore, camp, and hike, you can also find him designing fashion, illustrating or reading One Piece! 

A dedicated Illustrator and professional, Emme joins our team after years of experiences and travel: Between her birth state of Kansas, being raised in NH, venturing out to Georgia for college, and being welcomed back the Granite state once again! As one of our resident apprentices, Emme puts a multitude of skills to test across all departments of the organization on a daily basis. 

Skyrim, Bear & Breakfast, and Black Myth: Wukong are some of her favorite games to cozy up to in her spare time, but she also has a soft spot for supporting Indie game development as a gamer and an Illustrator. Emme can also be found spending time with her partner going fishing and cooking new recipes. 

Hailing from the lands of Massachusetts, Chris has taken up the mantle of leading Tycoon Arcade, our old-school arcade and retail store. Wielding sharp wit and a guitar, he is always ready to share his melodious music as the Glimmerhold Bard, producing an environment of warmth and joy for all.

Every great entertainer needs to rest, and in those times Chris enjoys adventures in nature, whether hiking mountainous terrain or by playing his favorite video games to explore vast new worlds. Also something of an alchemist, Chris is often found brewing his own mead and beer, or cooking interesting recipes.

Returning from far away lands, John fell under the tutelage of the resident Tycoon Tinkerer. John's abilities range from smithing, seaming, calligraphy, tinkering, survival and arcanotech. He has survived encounters with spirits of the lake; he walks the planes as a hobby, and has acquired resistance to lighting damage.
During his downtime John will be in his workshop, enjoying games with good company, or satiating a creeping wanderlust.

Games have always been a spot for relation and fun for him, especially with friends and family. Boardgames have gained much favor with him even though ttrpgs remain the clear favorite. When running games, he has been known to feed his guests like halfings and dwarves.

Billy comes to us from a land that isn't far away… He's the only Ducati driving caveman that we've ever seen! He also likes to play some pinball and take some serious naps (when he's not
working here at the Tycoon Arcade!) He also likes to use his club to play Golden Tee instead of the actual golf clubs.
