Willick began her career in the games business in a Louisiana game store, where she attracted he attention of the Games Workshop sales team, a relationship that led her to join the Games Workshop Memphis Battle Bunker and store. From there, she was recruited by Gale Force Nine to design terrain pieces and game tables for the company.
Willick’s design work included a number of Battlefield in a Box pre-painted terrain sets, and Battlefront's buildings for Flames of War and Team Yankee.
