Bio
Clint Kreider
My experience working with Brent has been extremely positive. I had the privilege to train and lead him on his first testing job, in which he very quickly learned the ropes and became an indispensable teammate. On our extremely small team, Brent quite comfortably carried a huge portion of the responsibilities for testing two browser-based MMOs, and mastered even the most complex systems. He talents also allowed him to take responsibility for content creation and system design, where he was well-served by his test experience and his broad knowledge of gaming. He clearly has the ability to contribute in many ways. In addition, I very much appreciated his sense of humor, keen wit, and frank honesty. I worked literally side-by-side with Brent for three years, and I'd be happy to do so again.

Brent joined Flying Lab as an entry-level Tester, his first job in the games industry. Three years later, you’d think he’d been making games his whole life. Brent is very bright and focused. He has adopted excellent testing practices and methodologies and is well prepared to take on larger projects with greater responsibilities. He has been sought-after within Flying Lab for his tenacity and thoroughness in testing. I am confident he could have a very bright future in that direction. However, Brent has also recently contributed significantly as a Game Designer, and has proven to have strong talents there as well. He has excellent instincts for game mechanics, usability and for creating an enjoyable experience for players. I’ve very much enjoyed working with Brent, appreciated his hard work, and highly recommend him.
