After over 11 1/2 years on Halo, I step out of my Spartan armor for the last time today to head off to new adventures. It's been a massive honor to have been part of a game I loved so much as a player and admired so much as a developer. I couldn't be more proud of my time at 343.

@AxelCarnage @parasiteDoll_ Not yet but it’s not something I’ve made before yet my experience from the games I’ve shipped before are all relevant in different ways. :)

@theZachius @RevivedAntihero Seriously, the seats were so nuts! So close I got to chit-chat and take a selfie with @DashaKuret!

@DavidEllis @wampa_stomps @AlexLBean @RevivedAntihero It’s too bad really because I was ready to hop over the barricade and pull out another table so @DavidEllis could stick this for the second time that night!

@Aegis_Mind She just turned 8!

Home from our whirlwind family Cali trip and raced up to get Olive before the snow piled up too much! For sure the dirtiest I’ve ever see the girl but she needed some fireplace time before I make her take a bath 🤣

[Tom French @pardontomfrench]

Thank god for the wife’s Bronco or it would have been a mess to get her today with our old mini-van. I did have to pick the chonky girl up and lift her in to the back to load her tho!
