Tara joined the ENH team in 2015, bringing her passion for games inspired by PC and mobile titles like The Room, the Cube Escape Series, and the Submachine series.

In the daytime, Angela works as the Development Coordinator for Long Wharf Theatre. Originally from Buffalo, NY, she holds a degree in Arts Administration & Theatre. Angela is excited to apply her love of horror movies, all things nerdy, and immersive theatrical experiences to set the scene for your escape.

Len is a man of mystery. His bio has been "forthcoming" for over two years now.

Cole is from San Antonio, TX, and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Anthropology. She is excited to be part of the ENH Team, where her love of puzzles, mysteries and gaming come together. Outside of work, Cole can be spotted doing aerial arts, camping, playing video games on the easiest difficulty setting, reading mystery novels, and drinking tea.

Jeremy has a degree in mathematics from Brown University, and after years of corporate work set out for more creative pastures. He began building lamps, furniture, and clocks in 2012. Jeremy joined the ENH team in September 2017 as an engineer to help build and maintain our games.

Kayla played her first escape room in Shanghai, China, in the summer of 2013. She's now happy to be involved in Escape New Haven by managing their digital presence. Although Kayla calls eastern Connecticut home, she's thrilled to have a reason to get over to New Haven (besides Ikea) and explore all it has to offer!

Elsbeth joined the ENH team in 2018 to manage our on-site group puzzle, Wreck Havoc. Originally from New Jersey, she holds an MFA in Acting from the Actors Studio Drama School. Outside of Escape, she can be found surrounded by several in-progress crafts and mugs of cold forgotten tea, with a cat on her lap, while binge-watching a show meant for teens in the early 2000s.

Suzy graduated from Southern CT State University with a degree in Psychology. By day, she works at a group home for adults with mental illnesses. By night, you can usually find her jamming out to 90s boybands or catching up on true crime and/or paranormal podcasts.

Outside of ENH, Dan performs stand-up comedy and is a managing editor at the satirical website thehardtimes.net.

Ethan grew up in Southbury, CT, and moved to New Haven in '08 to attend Yale. Since then, he has studied in China, worked in Zambia, bicycle-camped from coast to coast of the USA, and won/lost room escapes everywhere from Tennessee to Taiwan.

Max studied mechanical engineering at Yale then spent several years designing biomedical devices. He now spends his days designing puzzles and challenges to confine, confound, confuse and amuse you. Max hopes you have as much fun solving his puzzles as he does making them.

Dylan studied mathematics and business at Emory University and now spends his days investigating white-collar crime and other possible accounting mischiefs. A profound lover of all things games, Dylan’s first escape room challenge was an exhilarating, nail-biting experience. He is elated to be a part of Ethan and Max’s collaboration and knows they will continually push the boundaries of the Room Escape genre.
