Gaming career
Trihex was active in competitive Yu-Gi-Oh in 2002 before developing an interest in speedrunning in 2004.
He has been speedrunning Yoshi's Island since 2004. During Trihex's speedrun of the game at Awesome Games Done Quick 2014, he took off his shirt as a result of donations incentive. At some point during this run, the fire alarm went off for unknown reasons, causing him to evacuate the building. He did a run of Yoshi's Island again at Summer Games Done Quick 2015. Trihex offered a narration throughout the run, explaining his techniques and describing why the game is worthy of speedrunning attention. This was also the first time that the difficult "5-4 skip" was achieved at Games Done Quick.
He had also been speedrunning other games including: Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, and Jet Set Radio.
Trihex was one of the eight speedrunners drafted to compete in the Nintendo World Championships in 2015. Surviving the elimination matches, he, together with Cosmo Wright, Mad Mage and John Numbers, ended up in the semi-finals, where he lost in a match of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U while playing as Toon Link.
Jared Rea, community manager of Twitch.tv, has stated that he really enjoys watching Trihex and is "amazed by his technicality." Trihex believes that "a good speedrunner is also a good commentator." Though this outlook may result in worse runs, Trihex notes that it leaves a greater impression on the audience.
On November 23, 2016, The American eSports professional video game team Tempo Storm welcomed Trihex as their newest member and is currently a member as of 2017.
