I was handed a copy of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" when I was 11 years old, and my life changed forever. Suddenly there were unlimited worlds I could visit that offered anything I could dream of. As time went on, my love of these fantasy realms lead me to games like old school Dungeons & Dragons, with my notebooks full of character development under the watchful, though sometime tyranical eye of a master DM. As technology entered every day life, there were the early console games like Link and Zelda, and Final Fantasy on Nintendo. Fast forward a few years and the pc games, Diablo, Diablo II, Morrowind, and Oblivion, where I got to be the protagonist in the story.
A few more years go by and my life and love of fantasy games takes on a whole new life when I was introduced to a little game called Guild Wars... you may have heard of it. Suddenly I was in this amazing land, with it's vivid graphics and well developed storylines. But more than that, there were all these other people around! I was making friends around the world as we battled toward the same goal. It was truly amazing, and I wanted to be more a part of it.. this new community I had found. Enter the Official Guild Wars Wiki, where I could share my knowledge and love of the game, and the GW Guru Auctions where I could sell all the marvelous stuff I was finding in the game.
Chapter next... Curse acquired GW Guru (and the auctions), and I saw an opportunity to expand my ever growing love of wiki editing. Through a bit of hard work and browbeating, I convinced Curse that they needed me on their wiki team (which at the time was comprised of a single wiki manager). Today, I am the Senior Wiki manager on their Gamepedia team. You will find my fingers in on most of our wikis somewhere. Working for Curse, doing something I truly love to do is a dream come true for me.
