I am now an employee at Maxis for Electronic Arts Salt Lake. I am an assistant game designer and part of The Sims 3 team. Needless to say, I’m excited, honored, and humbled to now be part of a franchise that was so important to me as a young queer teenager. The Sims allowed me to create happily married same sex couples, and to a kid in a Christian School at the time, the game meant the world to me and showed me that the vitriol preached by my school was wrong. I am incredibly happy to be part of this franchises’ legacy.
Here’s to new opportunities and the beginning of an exciting career!
