Top SchoolAbby Farhat is a NYC-based software engineer and game-maker with 8 years of experience building high-performance web and real-time systems, currently shipping data visualizations at Bloomberg used by institutional users. She blends product intuition from shipping five indie games with ~2M players and multiple festival nominations, with production-grade web performance and real-time rendering expertise demonstrated across Bloomberg.com and Terminal projects reaching tens of millions of monthly users. Abby has led end-to-end launches—from mobile ports and marketing that drove 1.5M+ players and $30k in merch revenue to architecting Next.js platforms and performance pipelines—while co-founding a startup and contributing engineering leadership at USC and NASA projects.

Notably, she has experience turning creative prototypes into commercial releases and has presented on authentic queer storytelling in games at GDC. Driven by curiosity, she balances technical depth with playful side projects and outdoor pursuits to recharge.
