Meet our storytellers
Daniel Ivy
Ivy Tower Owner and Chief Storyteller
He/Him
Storytelling Since: 1993
Favorite System: D&D 5th Edition
The focus of Daniel's 20 year career has been to bring education and affordable housing opportunities to as many people as possible, while also thriving in his day job as a leader in the banking industry. However he is now setting his sites on his other passion, which is bringing the magic and camaraderie of collaborative storytelling to the world. Since 1993, Daniel's passion for storytelling and gaming has taken many forms, however there has always been a focus on bringing people together. Watching a diverse group of minds working to solve a problem, or navigate a difficult social interaction, in the safety of a virtual world, is such a rewarding and fulfilling experience, that he built a business to bring these experiences to as many people as possible.
Julian Leiberan-Titus
He/Him
Storytelling Since: 1990
Favorite System: Storm Hollow
Also Loves: D&D 5E, Pathfinder 2E, and Apocalypse Games
Julian hasn’t stopped running games since he received his first D&D book in the 5th grade and got yelled at by a teacher for “reading during recess.” He is now a professional writer, game designer, and graphic designer who has played dozens of RPGs over the years. Still, D&D has always remained a constant love. So much so, that many themes and methodologies that he incorporated into Storm Hollow, came from his years of storytelling with D&D. When running games, Julian tries to keep everyone feeling safe, engaged, and having fun with a “Yes and…” approach to player ideas. He wants to ensure that everyone at the table gets their moment to shine, and that no one feels trampled over or forgotten. Everyone has fun and everyone goes home with a story to tell.
Hunter Briggs
He/Him
Storytelling Since: 2003
Favorite System: D&D 5E
Also Loves: Feng Shui, MURPG, and Shadowrun
Goofy actor and eternal nerd. An oversimplified, but accurate, description of Hunter Briggs. Hunter has been doing character work ever since he could string his first sentence together... and that was almost 4 decades ago. Fantasy and D&D were second nature in his home of medieval enthusiasts, as was the idea of playing roles and giving them silly voices. This has led him to professional work in film, theater, radio, podcasting, and his greatest strength, improv. When your players are wild, random, or just too clever, it's good to have a storyteller that can adapt on the fly. That's this guy.
Geoff Davis
He/Him
Storytelling Since: 2018
Preferred System: D&D 5E
As a high school social studies teacher, Geoff's love for storytelling and gaming has always been an integral part of his life. However, when he discovered the world of role-playing games, it was as if a whole new universe unfolded before his eyes, or really, in his mind! From sneaking away during lunch breaks in his high school to indulge in games like Star Wars and Magic the Gathering, to his chance encounter with Daniel, who introduced him to the captivating realm of Dungeons and Dragons, his destiny was forever sealed. Now, alongside Daniel and Ivy Tower, he is beyond excited to share his passion by creating thrilling and inclusive D&D experiences for all.
