I’m building a world to get lost in,
and a few ways to find each other.

I took the long way to find what I’m good at.
I’m from Sarnia, Ontario. At the University of Windsor, I started with English, then found psychology, and finished with a double major. After that came a trade that never quite felt like me.
When the money ran out, I joined the Canadian Armed Forces in 2023. That’s where something clicked: I loved working with technology, and I was good at it.
Agartha Inc. is everything I learned along the way, pointed at the things I’ve always wanted to build. A game world I can get lost in. Better ways to talk, listen and find the words. Different projects, all things I care about making.
I’m still learning as I go. Now I get to put that learning into something of my own—and let people watch it take shape.
I stream the building live as ericola47 on Twitch Live
