My entry into the games industry was intended to be a short Summer job through a friend. Little did I know that I would forgo my dreams of pursuing veterinary medicine for a lifelong career in video games. My time at Sammy was a tremendous learning experience. Budgets were extremely tight, so we did most everything ourselves from scratch.
As a marketing product manager, I designed marketing and promotional materials including product packaging, advertisements, trade show exhibits and sales materials. Simultaneously, I was also acting as localization producer on several products for the Super Nintendo, Game Boy, Sega Genesis and coin-op systems including Wanderer’s from Y’s, Viewpoint, Fighting Masters, Warsong, Rolan’s Curse and Might & Magic 1 & 2.
