About Me

Lead Producer on set

Hi, my name is Sophie! I'm a Computer Science Games student at USC specializing in technical game production. I am currently working as Technical Producer for Mr. Bladder Has To Go, where I help bridge the gap between technical and creative disciplines. I'm currently seeking Summer 2027 internships in Production!

When I'm not managing sprints, I obsess over strategy games, roguelikes and RPGs. You'll usually find me analyzing trainer AIs in Pokémon challenge runs, optimizing high-scoring decks in Balatro, or exploring the charming worlds of indie RPGs. Outside of games, I love food, traveling, and all things cute. When I’m away from my keyboard, I’m usually hunting down a new local dim sum spot or procuring another Chiikawa blind box.
