I'm Susan, Community Marketing Manager at Wikia.

I've grown up surrounded by technology and internet boom. I got my start as a young bookworm and then PC gamer (/wave Commander Keen!). As a recovering MMORPG addict, I evolved my interests in all things geek, tech and writing into a career on the internet at a variety of start-ups, most recently as a member of Ning's top-notch Advocacy team.

I'm focusing on creating an amazing experience for Founders and Administrators. I'll also be heads down working on communication and will be posting on theWikia Staff Blog with plenty of exciting news and comments. My passion lies in creating internet experiences that fit their audience and are intuitive, engaging, and most of all - fun.

Outside the office I have a formidable cooking habit, fans of Wikia's recipes wikis can start looking for my contribs there soon. I can also be found checking out books at the local library, sharing articles on Google Reader, playing video games on Wii and Xbox, and exploring new restaurants and holes-in-the-wall in San Francisco.
