Hi, I’m Taran, a Creative Director/Writer that turned a small idea into a broadcast TV series, invented a device that changed blood donations, took on bankers during the recession, and created the first reality video game ever. My work has spread globally with zero paid media, garnering a haberdashery of recognition and awards.

But in the end, I love ideas. If you do too, let’s chat. 

Blood Sport Gaming
