ARK: SURVIVAL EVOLVED

I joined the Studio Wildcard team in December of 2015 and began working on ARK: Survival Evolved. I was hired on as the Assistant Community Manager, but quickly transitioned to Community Manager and added a new title to my credit, QA Analyst.

In June 2019 I parted ways Studio Wildcard, at that time as the Lead Community Manager for ARK: Survival Evolved.

EVENTS AROUND THE WORLD

I have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel around the world showcasing and sharing my passion for games. Here are some of the conventions I've attended:

PAX East

My first convention I'd ever attended, I hosted multiple live-streams over the convention as well as live-casted tournament style games of Survival of the Fittest to thousands online. I also spoke with many fans and interested gamers about ARK while on the convention floor.

PAX West

Back in front of the camera hosting daily live shows to start off each day of the convention, keeping players informed of what was going on during the convention and doing interviews and live gameplay throughout the weekend.

ChinaJoy

Sent as the ambassador, I embarked on a journey from Canada to Shanghai to attend an event for Survival of the Fittest at the largest digital entertainment convention in the region, ChinaJoy. I served as both the English commentator for the competition as well as the Judge or 'Game Master'.

TwitchCon

Participated in the technical production that allowed gamers to livestream their gameplay from our booth as well as communicated with players and influencers throughout the convention.

Dev Videos, Interviews, and Livestreams

Charity Work

Every year, Studio Wildcard participates in the 24-hour charity livestream event known as Extra Life. As Community Manager I was heavily involved in the production and scheduling of the events during my time at the studio. Cumulatively, during my years participating, we raised over $190,000 USD for the charity.
