Paris wears many hats: co-founder of Secret Lab (a mobile game development startup), co-author of ‘iPhone and iPad Game Development for Dummies’ and ‘Unity Mobile Game Development for Dummies’ (out in 2011) and Product Manager (Mobile) at Meebo Inc., one of the Web’s fastest growing consumer Internet companies. Paris has degrees in HCI, computer science, medieval and modern history and enjoys designing, producing and building awesome experiences for mobile. Through some miracle of time management, he is also a Graduate Researcher in information management at the University of Tasmania in Australia.
