Unlike most people at Valve, Amy was actually born and raised right here in Washington, on Whidbey Island. And like all native Washingtonians talking to transplants, she will remind you of this fact roughly twice a minute in any given conversation. After many years working at Zillow, Amy took a break from work to enjoy time with her family and learn how to cook some bucket list foods, like Beef Wellington and Lasagna Bolognese from scratch. Years later, sitting in her kitchen surrounded by pans of Beef Wellington, Amy realized it was either time to pick some new foods or get back to work. Since joining Valve Amy has found a second family. She gets the opportunity to work with exceptionally talented and incredibly kind people every day, and to spend every day helping to make their experience at Valve better. When she’s not working, Amy’s favorite passion is to travel. Be sure to ask her about Utila next time you see her!
