As a lifelong gamer and entrepreneur, Bill has been in the gaming industry for over 20 years with a passion and love for blending gaming, education technology and now exploring web3 and AI powered gaming. Bill previously co-founded Hallpass Media which was acquired in a roll up to create Jam City in 2011. Prior to Hallpass Media, Bill founded the original Addicting Games which was acquired by Atom Entertainment and then purchased by Viacom shortly afterward in 2006.

Erin Torbiak has been working with her current cofounders since the startup days of Math Games during her university summers. Erin’s role has expanded from writing the original math questions to include project and executive team management, process design and implementation, and ongoing technical learning as the library of products and games has evolved. While she has roots in full-stack web development across both educational and recreational game products, she takes pride in the tools and designs she has built which are actively used by millions of students. Erin holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Programming from the University of Alberta and has a passion for digital educational resources and progressive learning methods. In quite the plot twist, after setting out to build educational products, Erin found herself working on some of the very platforms that once stole time from her own studies, including AddictingGames.com and Shockwave.com.
