Hi-

I'd like to help out on the COT project any way I can.

I was a 4-year veteran on CoH when it was shut down - I played the Red side mainly (mu-wah-ha-ha) and my home server was Liberty with about a half-dozen 50's. I had my own VG & base, which I loved (I read that I could have my own 'fortress of evil' and that's what sold me on the game), soloed a lot, occasionally started or joined PUGs, but wasn't much into PvP.

My professional experience is all outside the video game industry. I've carried out all aspects of software development: scope & requirements definition, solution design and architecture, coding and debugging, testing and documentation, and configuration management. Currently, I do a lot of SQL programming and 3-D model scripting for a company that develops warehouse automation solutions.

I've also dabbled in creative writing (nothing publishable so far) and studied the craft of story structure. I did finish a NaNoWriMo novel - a 50K word murder mystery written in 1st person perspective of the protagonist. My first AE arc was 'The Secret Weapon', patterned after the movie serials of the 30's and 40's.

NDA - will send e-mail upon request
