PC and Console Gaming

I not so secretly desired to work on Final Fantasy 13 Versus, Guild Wars 2, and Armored Core but simply found it impossible from my location. 

I was an avid gamer and used to host tournaments in multiple games. 

I had many friends overseas whom I would occasionally meet online—some on voice chat programs. 

Managed events with a group of 100 members with the help of a small team of officers. 

Served as president of said group adapting to meet members' needs, spurring growth and finesse.

Researched gameplay mechanics to learn proficiency with each class thus providing greater support to guildmates.

Studied over 1000 skills and synergistic combinations to create player versus-player load outs for highly competitive 8v8 battles. 

Worked with key members to co-lead raid events comprised of up to 40 members. 

Mastered move sets of dozens of characters to compete.

Undefeated in favorite game, once winning against 3 other players at once solo.
