Official Bio
Amir grew up in the very place in which Supergiant Games (Company) is headquartered – the same home in which he took up hosting pen-and-paper role-playing sessions at the tender age of 10, and to this day he still DMs to the same group (which includes Supergiant Games’ Darren Korb (Person)). Contrary to the impression this must give, he did move out of his parents’ house for a while. After majoring in English at Columbia University, he joined Electronic Arts (Company) to work on the Command & Conquer franchise, where he was responsible for design on Command andamp;amp;amp; Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars and Command andamp;amp;amp; Conquer: Red Alert 3. Along with his colleague Gavin, he left the studio in 2009 to form Supergiant Games in his ongoing quest to give back to gaming what gaming’s given him. At Supergiant, Amir designs content for the studio’s games and manages day-to-day operations.
