D&D 5E Listing the current D&D team

Morrus

Well, that was fun
Staff member
So we know there are 15 people on the D&D team, and half of those are working on the RPG (as opposed to boardgames, apps, and other stuff). James Wyatt moved from D&D to M:tG yesterday.

I maintain a list of ex-WotC folks, but I'd like to also maintain a list of current staff on that page. Please help by listing any staff you know to be on the D&D team, and their current job title if possible.

Thanks to some help, my list on the news page is updated! Some of those folks are apparently not on D&D anymore, and are working on other stuff at WotC.
 



Like who?

Quote from the News page:Rob Schwalb left for Monte Cook Games a couple of months back, and Bruce Cordell did the same in August last year. Chris Dupois is at WotC still, but working on the Kaijudo game, and Tom Olsen and Jennifer Clarke-Wilkes are, like James Wyatt, on M:tG. Bart Carroll is also no longer working directly on D&D.


Ironically the original design team for Next was Monte, Bruce, and Rob.
 

Likely Core D&D 7
Mike Mearls,
Rodney Thompson,
Jeremy Crawford,
Greg Bilsland,
Chris Perkins,
Matt Sernett,
Chris Sims (congrats on the new baby!),
and nameless summer intern #4

Shelly Mezzanoble, ?
Peter Lee, ? (probably working on the next 'Lords of Waterdeep' or other boardgame)
Chris Tulach, Organized Play
Trevor Kidd, Community Manager
Nathan Stewart, Brand Director

Rob Schwalb doesn't work for WoTC, its a freelancer if i am not mistaken.

Also, wasn't Tom Olsen brought from M:tG to work on D&D?

Peter Lee works on D&D 5E this i know.
