The Wowhead Team

Alexis (Perculia) <Site Director>

Alexis started her journey at Wowhead as that one volunteer who wrote guides–a lot of guides–and then she started to write everything before officially joining the Wowhead staff in Fall 2011. An invaluable member of the content team, she continues to write the popular weekly guides as well as tackling numerous other site projects like the transmog feature, for which she sorted tens of thousands of items into matching models for sets. (She's still miffed that Warglaives can't be transmogged.)

Alexis has been playing WoW since 2005, doing everything from raiding in a server-first guild on her rogue for multiple expansions to chasing down achievements like Battlemaster and the Insane. With a background in art and music history, she's also the quirkiest member of the team--when not farming mounts or yet more vanity gear in her spare time, she's most likely practicing classical piano or making costumes with elaborate hats.

Jerek (Jerek) Dain <Sr. Software Engineering Manager / Occasional Designer>

Jerek has been doing design and development across Fanbyte sites since 2007, such as designing the charts, tooltips, and filters on the original LolKing, working on a Thottbot redesign that never saw the light of day, and working quite a bit on the WoW Allakhazam site. After a number of small contributions working with Skosiris early on he transitioned to Wowhead full time, eventually becoming the Lead Developer. Some of his favorite early projects were rushing to get the MoP talent calculator live before BlizzCon 2011 ended, the battle pet area and pages revamp, the new profiler, Hearthhead tools, and the Favorites system (Click the stars next to titles on database pages!). He loves learning new programming languages and tools, and making things "pixel perfect".

Jerek has been playing World of Warcraft since the original beta in 2004 and has every collector's edition. He loves to keep switching his main character to top DPS charts, tank, and heal on multiple classes, and leveling multiple warriors (3 different ones to cap, back when that wasn't easy!). He's also a big fan of puzzle games, Diablo 2, Alpha Centauri, Metroid, the Legend of Zelda, Minecraft, and Oxygen Not Included. In his spare time he customizes everything, starts more projects than he can complete, listens to tons of audiobooks and podcasts while gaming, and practices his Japanese. Jerek co-lead the raid team Inconclusive/Dark on Proudmoore in Classic and early Burning Crusade, and raided with Edamame Enterprise in Convert to Raid during Mists and Draenor.

Favorite gaming moment: Leading my raid guild to down Vaelastrasz, known as "the guild destroyer" because of guilds that broke up over never getting past him.
Still remembers Shattered Galaxy.

Stephen (Sas148) <Sr. Community Support Specialist>

Stephen joined Wowhead as a volunteer Moderator in 2012 before eventually taking on screenshots and other responsibilities. His desire to advance and better the Wowhead community eventually resulted in an offer to help facilitate communications between the site and its users. After receiving his degree in Business Administration he was offered a broader role involving the entire network of Fanbyte sites but he still remains heavily involved with Wowhead.

When not answering emails and troubleshooting various anomalies you'd probably find Stephen catching up on various TV shows, like Game of Thrones, or playing whatever game his friends are obsessed with that week. Odds are though you'd probably just find him finally getting some sleep.

Matt (arokan) <Sr. Software Engineer>

Matt first entered the shadowy realm of web development after the Secret Dimensional War of 1993, which he's just now realizing has been wiped from everyone else's memories, so nevermind. Much of the work he does is hidden on the server side of things, where he refactors like a madman and adds code comments everywhere he can possibly think of, in what's probably an ultimately futile effort to stem the encroaching tide of code rot and entropy. He also enjoys hiking.

That was a lie; he hates hiking. He does, however, keep up with a few dozen TV shows, such as Super Karate Monkey Death Car and C-SPAN 2's coverage of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Much like Jerek, he's been playing World of Warcraft since the original beta in 2004, and has undertaken the absurd task of maintaining a max-level but non-raid-geared character of every class since Wrath of the Lich King.

Gerard (Erorus) <Sr. Software Engineer>

Gerard has been creating third-party tools that use Blizzard's Armory data since it was launched during The Burning Crusade, recently to great effect with Undermine Exchange, previously with The Undermine Journal. After joining Wowhead in April 2013, he endured a baptism by fire with rapid work on the launch of our Hearthstone site, Hearthhead, the month after.

Since then, he adds site support for arcane data like garrison followers and item bonuses, builds tools like the Soulbind Calc and the Collection Trackers, and helps to modernize the legacy code which keeps this thing running. All that full-stack goodness. When he plays WoW, you'll probably find him behind a Draenei Resto Shaman. If not WoW, he's probably playing Civilization. Or messing about with something on everynothing.net.

Howell (PigeonD) <Data Engineer / Software Engineer>

Howell joined the Wowhead data tools and reverse engineering team in 2017. He is responsible for developing and maintaining all the tools for processing new builds and pushing data to the site.

Howell has been playing WoW since 2008 on Taiwan realms around the Burning Legion expansion. He started playing mainly as a hunter but now he enjoys playing as a tank and healer as well.

Anna (xaeil) <Designer>

Ash (attluh) <Sr. Software Engineer>

Alan (Rekkis) <Front-End Developer>

Alan's adventures in Azeroth started in February 2005. Despite his dreams of being an Orc, his friend convinced him to spend over 300 days play time as one of the "good guys". After many hours of being a Night Elf and enduring the long grind to rank 11, a swig of the blood of Mannoroth led him to bigger, better skull smashing. You can find this Orcish altoholic indiscriminately severing the limbs of anyone with a red name in Rated Battlegrounds or blasting as many mobs as he can convince the tank to pull in Mythic Plus dungeons.

Jen (Raef) <Front-End Developer>

Sara (Serrinn) <Content Manager>

Sara started out at Wowhead with a love of fashion, writing a guide about matching weapons for the Mists of Pandaria challenge mode outfits. Currently writing guides about everything from Fishing to Pets! Sara has been playing WoW since the ZA patch, once having been a rogue and now playing a priest. In her real life, she's a librarian and law school graduate - she's got a thing for books. In her spare time, she's playing Diablo or watching rugby.
