The company has developed for every console platform since the Sega Genesis and SNES days and has grown to a staff of over 100 since its inception. The company is headed up by CEO John Blackburn.

Im stoked! Should be fun- so goes the last few weeks of my employment at the LDS Church. I have to say its been a lot of fun...Ive got to meet some great poeple and work on some very cool projects. This was only a temporary gig until I found something else and thus, when Avalanche came calling I had to consider it. Jonathan has been great to deal with my employment over the last 6 months, but honey- I think this is it! I was looking for a company that I could be at for the long haul, and really call it home. I hate moving around but this company at least from the outside seems to offer all the things I am looking for. Great benefits, cool work environment, and decent salary. You would be amazed to realize how hard this is to find in one organization. So Im off for a new adventure, and im very excited!
