Ever since receiving LEGO Star Wars as a Christmas present in 2005, Charles has been an avid gamer. Since then, he's had the chance to play lots of other games, like LEGO Star Wars II, LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, and even LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

He currently lives in Ohio with his partner, their dog, and their two cats.
