Ariel Angelotti got her first game credit after getting her BA in Japanese Language and Culture and Psychology from the University of Texas. She went to work at Edge of Reality on The Incredible Hulk. She then moved to Japan and worked as an Assistant Producer at Q-Games from September 2010 until December 2011 where she worked on PixelJunk SideScroller, PixelJunk Shooter 2, PixelJunk Monsters Online and hosted their official PixelJunk Radio podcast. At this time, she was also a regular contributor to games radio show One Life Left; her segment focused on the differences between Western and Japanese development culture.
After leaving Q-Games, she moved back to the United States where she frequently guested on shacknews.com's Weekend Confirmed podcast, hosted by Garnett Lee, where she famously used to top off bad jokes made by other guests with a random "heyyooo!" and provided more insight into the Japanese side of the industry from her time living and working there (trivia: apparently, Bayonetta is vag-tastic!). In Spring 2012, she joined Sony Santa Monica Studios as Assistant Producer to work on PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
