Kiki Wolfkill

Born into a racing family, Kiki has been involved with motorsports since she was a small child. Over the course of the last twelve years, she has raced cars both as an amateur and as a professional, starting with amateur road racing with SCCA, NASAPro, and Porsche Club Racing (where she consistently posted podium finishes).

In 1999, after participating in Lyn St. James's Driver Development Program, she competed in the Motorola/Grand-Am Cup and the Women's Global GT Series, where she drove a Panoz Esperante to three top five finishes and 5th overall in the series' inaugural season. She also drove an Xbox-themed Mini Cooper in the fabled Gumball Rally across the U.S. in 2002, placing 12th overall.

Beyond professional competition, Kiki’s involvement in motorsports includes many years as a racing instructor for race programs at both Portland International Raceway and Pacific Raceways. She has also driven pace cars and camera cars for TV events, including MTV’s Road Rules.

Off the track, Kiki brings her racing experience to video games. As Studio Art Director for Microsoft Game Studios, Kiki brings a wide range of expertise to the development of a full line of PC and Xbox 360® racing and action games. She serves as a racing subject matter expert, a video director, and an art director all rolled into one.

As a member of the Studio RX leadership team, Kiki is chartered with helping drive major Xbox 360 initiatives, including making the most visually-stunning and sonically-impactful games on the platform. She supports development partners all over the world in pushing the boundaries of Xbox 360's next-generation technologies.

Her recent game credits include:

• Project Gotham Racing® franchise (Xbox/Xbox 360)
• Forza Motorsport™ (Xbox)
• Fable (Xbox)
• Rallisport Challenge franchise (Xbox /PC)

She has been featured in multiple media outlets including the Oxygen Network, Sports Illustrated for Women, Autoweek, and MPH magazine. Although she has spent the last five years focusing on Microsoft’s launch of the Xbox and Xbox 360 consoles, she has been active in local track events and hopes to find time in her schedule soon to return to the world of professional racing.
