Amanda Schade is a Community Lead - Unreal Engine at Epic Games. She possess expertise in animation, maya, photoshop, video games, illustrator and 19 more skills. Colleagues describe her as "Amanda is a competent and talented self-starter who worked with me on a 4000-person event, coordinating and organizing tournaments and activities. This was both a course and a substantial project (an internship in itself, in fact) which presented my team considerable pre-event work that required them to articulate activities and do substantial PR and Marketing. At-event, 18-20 hour days brought demanding conditions for which she went above and beyond the call of duty. Amanda anticipated team needs, and worked well with both other team members and visitors to the event, and always faced the world with a sunny demeanor. I highly recommend her to any employer ... feel free to contact me as a reference!" and "Reliable, driven, organized and vision-focused. I have seen Amanda grow leaps and bounds in the 3 years I worked with her on Kinematifest and SIGGRAPH. Her leadership skills have increased as she led Kinematifest 2011 in their most well-attended year yet. She always impressed me with her organization and drive to get things done efficiently and decisively. Amanda is going to go on to do great things, and I cannot wait to see the path she paves for herself and those to follow her."
