Hi everyone!
For those of you who don't know me, I was the lead developer on GalCiv1, GalCiv2 and I did some of the game engine code for GalCiv3 before I went on maternity leave and decided to stay at home with my daughter. I loved staying at home with my daughter, but she's a little older now and I thought that it might be nice to be around adults again. At the moment, I'll only be working part-time.
Currently, the plan is for me to work on low-level engine issues with memory, slow loading times, slowdown, etc. and to be the GalCiv2 expert on the team. 
I've always said that GalCiv was my first baby, so I'm really happy to get a chance to work on the series again!
