I am currently an Associate Producer. I coordinate the level design efforts for Best Fiends and support both our level design and testing teams so that they can keep creating high quality content for our fans. My tasks vary from day to day, but they usually involve the following – planning our roadmap, leading our meetings, assigning tasks, coordinating level testing, prioritising gameplay development and bug fixes, updating documentation and helping turn our analytics data into actionable information that we can then use to make our levels the best they can be!
3. What’s your favorite part about your job?

I have the flexibility to participate in almost any aspect of the technical and creative processes we go through in order to deliver the best possible game. The positive fan feedback reflects all of our hard work; it is very rewarding!
4. Who is your favorite Fiend or Slug and why?
Wu is my favorite because he is the epitome of Zen. He also has a pretty sweet Kung Fu outfit.
5. When you are not working at Seriously or playing Best Fiends, what do you enjoy doing?
I am an avid gamer so a lot of my free time is spent playing games whether they are on PC, console or mobile! Afterwork boardgaming and roleplaying sessions are also loads of fun.
