Americana Game Studio is a San Francisco based team of world class artists
and engineers with a passion for production quality, attention to detail,
and designs that favor collaborative goals, shared spaces, massively
concurrent systems, and strategic depth. They build games with massively
concurrent shared spaces where groups of players cooperate and compete to
achieve group goals with the aim of changing the industry with a new brand
of connected game design.
Brett’s academic background is in mathematics and finance, but he’s
been in
the games industry since 2006 in a variety of roles, from strategy / BD to
development management and operations. He joined GarageGames when it was
just a couple dozen people. It later grew to well over 100 employees, and
sold a majority stake to IAC. He joined Unity at a similarly early stage,
and grew the company’s valuation more than 600% in less than 2 years,
raising $12M from several firms, including Sequoia Capital, to fuel new
growth initiatives.
Brett earned his Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Math at the University of
Oregon and did graduate level in Math, Political Science, and Economics
from 1999 to 2005.
