At Zynga Games Network, I direct production operations for a $15M portfolio spanning six simultaneous titles, including Invest-Express, Word Puzzle, Casino Slots, and Match-3.

I oversee external QA and Art vendor operations, with teams of 24 and 20 respectively, and set deliverables and track SLAs.

As Senior Producer, I directed backend transition and service migration initiatives across live titles, maintaining continuous service without disruption to players. I also scaled production oversight across four live titles.

Earlier at Zynga Games Network, I managed vendor pipelines across QA, Art, and Audio, and owned operational lifecycles from feature specification through release and live maintenance. At Yesgnome Games, I built and shipped mobile titles using Unity, Xcode, and Android Studio.
