    Who are you?
    I’m Rob McDonald, have only been a Scrum Master for a few months but have been on Scrum teams across many industries for about 8 years.

    Where are you located?
    Wellington, New Zealand

    Why are you here? What are you looking to learn?
    I’m currently in a video games company, mostly focused on games for iOS and Android mobile devices. I’m in a new industry which is typically pretty waterfall/command and control. They have adopted agile and my hope is to connect with others in a similar situation. Though increasingly I see parallel situations with teams across many industries, so I believe I could learn from practitioners anywhere.

    What are you the most excited about in terms of our growing community?
    The opportunity to share my experiences, ask questions and learn from others

    And, how did you find us?
    Google searches brought to some of the main site’s articles

  • Hi Bob, I have been a programmer, a Business Analyst, discovered agile – and recently retrained as a Scrum Master. I work at a gaming company. They are new to agile, but super passionate about what they do. We’re based in New Zealand. I have encountered agileforall.com articles a few times over the years and joined to see if I can learn something, and listen in. They have benefited a lot from learning from Clinton Keith, who tailors his Scrum writing and training for making video games. I’m interested to connect with other Scrum Masters in this industry.
