"I started at Zynga in May of 2011 where I art directed their cooking game, Chefville. It was a great learning experience because I got to work with a lot of talented people with lots of great ideas. There were a lot of great games coming out from the company for the Facebook platform. Zynga was the leader of social games with its line up of popular titles like Farmville, Cityville, Chefville, etc."
