With DevGAMM since: March 2014
As the years went on, Maria wore many a DevGAMM hat. Once a PR & Content Manager, she slew a thousand dragons to make it to Content Producer, then scaled the daunting mountain all the way to the top and flagged it as her own as Chief Operating Officer, and she will not stop until she sees Hideo Kojima in the DevGAMM limelight.
To her, the games industry is the best industry of them all, and loves that everyone she meets is fun, open, creative, curious, and always ready to help. What she appreciates about her job is that it allows her to work side-by-side with so many incredible people worldwide while building amazing conferences and creating memorable experiences.
Growing up, Maria and her friends spent their summer nights playing Sims 2 on a friend’s powerful computer until her dad rebuilt the system with a new graphics card, and she got to play it back home too. As a busy adult, she believes in the power of the Macbook M1 and M2 processors in running a nice game experience, but at the end of the day, she is a PlayStation girl all the way, and Horizon Zero Dawn is her favorite game of all time.
