Hello, I'm a 47 year old professional, I work at Amazon as a Technical Evangelist, I work with Twitch, Alexa and others. I am a programmer in the game industry for over 20 years, and know a decent number of people in just about every game studio. I've worked on several games that people know of like SWTOR and Prey. I have multiple patents in the video, VOIP and gaming industries.
I am a powerlifter, soccer player, and father of 4, which is enough of a sports event of its own. Most of my kids are grown up at this point, so I travel the world to different countries working with people and enjoying the landscape. I mentor multiple students in many colleges to help them find out how to get into the game industry as well as help them understand different corporate cultures.
I am currently primarily playing Destiny 2, but also play Warframe, COD 4, Seige, Fallout 76, POE. I have run multiple top 10 world guilds in WoW and Wildstar with over 500 members in each.
I was looking to join Seismic primarily because I do not wish to create another community as it is a bit of work, and mainly become a part of an online community. I have limited time to play games being that I work and travel for the video game industry, but always find time if there is a schedule. I'm not as hardcore as I used to be, but more of a min/max player. In regards to the social aspect, I enjoy meeting new people that have the same common interests and exploring some of the finer details of life experiences.
