Hello everyone! My name is Kirsten Kane and I'm a Backend Engineer at Lightforge Games! I'm originally from Southern California, where I earned my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of California, Irvine. I worked in tech for a few years as an SDET before landing a job at Blizzard Entertainment, where I worked on the Battle.net team shortly before moving to the Hearthstone team as a Client engineer, then as a Server engineer. I lived in Southern California for most of my life, before getting the opportunity to move up to Seattle, WA where I received the opportunity to work remotely through Blizzard, and then through Lightforge! I'm a Backend Engineer, which means, among other things, I'm responsible for helping write code to allow you to play games online with your friends! When I'm not playing video games (my current games are Horizon Forbidden West and Destiny 2) you can usually find me climbing local mountains in the Cascades up here in Washington, where I'm currently taking a class on mountain climbing, or painting and/or playing miniatures games with my friends such as Warhammer: 40,000 and Marvel Crisis Protocol.
