“Root was a pivotal founding member of the Riot Games Engineering team. He brought tremendously deep experience in building, scaling and operating our platform services for our players around the world. In addition to his technical acumen, Root's commitment to team and product are un-matched. The first few years of scaling Riot were challenging to say the least. You could always count on Root to dive in and resolve the issue of the day. :) Lastly, Root's enthusiastic personality and innate high-energy make him a joy to be teammates with. Even in our toughest times, Root would always be there to share a laugh or lighten the mood. I'm truly lucky to have spent the past 5 years working with Root.”
