Game Designer

About

4.jpg

Hi there! My name is Mike Profeta and I'm a professional game designer. I have a strong affinity for systems design and I excel under the "always on" pressure of live service environments, which have so far encapsulated my entire career. Although I now work in the AAA console/PC space, my years of experience in live service on mobile titles before that have served me well as the industry has moved heavily toward free-to-play and live service models.

Outside of work, I can typically be found with a keyboard or controller in hand. I've been an avid gamer for nearly three decades, but it was playing Halo 2 on Xbox Live that cemented my desire to be a game developer. I have been fortunate through my time working on Destiny 2 to get to contribute to a game and community that grew out of that same desire to create worlds that inspire friendship.

When I'm not gaming, you’re most likely to find me with a book in hand, watching a movie or TV show, or exploring Washington state with my partner and our dogs.
