Jess Moore

Hello! I am a game producer with a focus on asset production, review processes, and product development. As a project consultant I specialize in coordinating external review and subject matter experts to make sure your game is authentic and approachable. I value teams that appreciate an analytic and empathetic approach to people, processes, and product.

About

I am a greencard-holding Canadian currently based in Los Angeles. I have been working remotely since 2017 with teams based all around the world. I am open to hybrid and remote; please contact me for details!
