Kevin Cheng’s Experience

  • Director of Product Strategy

    Raptr

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Internet industry)

    February 2008Present (1 year 10 months)

    Creating the social platform for gamers allowing them to know when their friends are playing, unify their gaming identities, share their achievements, update their games automatically and discover new games they'll like.

  • Co-Founder

    Off Panel Productions

    (Partnership; 1-10 employees; Online Media industry)

    March 2005Present (4 years 9 months)

    Off Panel Productions is dedicated to helping niche comic artists publish their work online and make money doing it. We aim to bring comics to communities that have never had them, all while giving the artist unprecedented ownership and creative control. The company was founded by comic artists and we’ve worked hard to build tools that address the special needs of online comic publishing.

  • Creator

    OK/Cancel

    (Non-Profit; 1-10 employees; Computer Software industry)

    September 2003Present (6 years 3 months)

    Probably one of the Top 10, if not Top 5 most popular webcomics about usability and design. If you only read one webcomic this year, make it Penny Arcade. If you read two, it's probably PvP or White Ninja or something. But none of them will make cracks about mental models and ethnography in the same month.
