Presenter’s Bio

Casey Carraher is a lifelong collector of hobbies who recently fell headfirst into the gruesome world of special effects makeup. When he isn’t making people look alarmingly injured, he’s an avid board gamer with a particular love for megagames—because apparently regular-sized hobbies just aren’t complicated enough.
