Wideload Games
Chicago, Illinois
Wideload focuses on an extremely creative and passionate core team here in Chicago, partnering with expert talent worldwide. I first met Wideload more than six years ago as the mocap director on Stubbs. What I found was a new approach to making games, lead by a team of industry veterans and creative visionaries, creating funny, appealing, and most of all, original games.
I was in love.
Everyone at Wideload contributes to the direction of our games. We meet regularly to brainstorm ideas, discuss improvements and pitch games to each other. By opening the floor up to team members' ideas we are able to promote a creative work environment while maintaining the flexibility to experiment.
As the Production Director, I coordinate all facets of our games, from audio to user-interface, all the way through engineering. My role is both challenging and extremely rewarding. Nothing compares to being able to see families enjoying the games that we've created.
When I am not at the studio, I spend my time wandering the city -- going to shows, checking out new restaurants, and biking the lakefront path.
