Ahead of what is being pitched as a 'big summer' for the firm, UK publisher Thumbstar has unveiled Kirsten Kearney as its new digital communications manager.
Kearney has previously worked for both the BBC and Ubisoft where she served as one of the firm's 'Frag Dolls' in the UK - and brings more than 15 years of experience to her new position.
Future focus
"I have had the pleasure of working with Kirsten previously and I couldn't think of anyone better to take on the role as the voice of Thumbstar across the digital and social space," said MD Phil Brannelly.
Thumbstar previously revealed to PocketGamer.biz that it plans to release 20 or more games across mobile platforms over the coming months a strategy that will make Kearney's role at the company a key one.
"Dialogue with our consumers is absolutely key to Thumbstar's future success and Kirstens wealth of experience in journalism and communications will prove invaluable in achieving this," continued Brannelly.
"Coupled with the appointment of Indigo Pearl, our communications strategy is well under way for our future launches."
Thumbstar claims it's currently in the process of "expanding its external ties with developers" and is undergoing talks with studios worldwide in order to push out further releases in 2012.
