Ask me a question
I'm a video game junkie. I've played since I was about 4 or 5. My first console was the Colecovision. Some of my very first memories are of Donkey Kong. Later, I got hooked up with an Atari and 40 games at a garage sale. And then (trumpets, drum roll) the NES was born. I saved allowance for a year before I could afford it. I subscribed to Nintendo Power magazine, which came with a free copy of Dragon Warrior. My life would never be the same. Then I got Final Fantasy. 'Nuff said. A junkie was born.
I've worked with video games in one form or another since 2002. I started as quality assurance and later worked in game localization for release in other countries. For the first time, I could speak openly about games and other people shared my passion. I wasn't humored or told that I should get out more. People's eyes didn't glaze over as I talked about leveling my 29 Defender. I was surrounded by people who spent their free time talking, living, breathing games. I can't imagine doing anything else.
Oddly, working at Mahalo is keeping me even more in tune with games than any job I've had before. In QA or localization, you're on the same game for months or even years. Now, every day, it's a new game.
I don't just play games though. I read a lot of fantasy, historical biographies, classic literature. I study French and Russian, take art classes and am learning to play guitar. I watch any show on TV that has to do with forensics, true crime, unsolved mysteries or the paranormal.
K, enough rambling. Nice to meet you.
