Hi there! My name is Mike Profeta and I'm a professional game designer. I have a strong affinity for systems design and I excel under the "always on" pressure of live service environments, which have so far encapsulated my entire career. Although I now work in the AAA console/PC space on acclaimed FPS MMO Destiny 2, my years of experience in live service on mobile titles before that have served me well as the industry has moved heavily toward free-to-play and live service models.
Outside of work, I can typically be found with a keyboard or controller in hand. I've been an avid gamer for nearly three decades, but it was playing Halo 2 on Xbox Live that cemented my desire to be a game developer. I have been fortunate through my time working on Destiny 2 to get to contribute to a game and community that grew out of that same desire to create worlds that inspire friendship.
When I'm not gaming, you’re most likely to find me with a book in hand, watching a movie or TV show, or exploring Washington state with my partner Samantha and our dog, Glitch.
