Tech and game industry friends, I'm supporting a dear friend in Seattle, WA search for a senior opportunity in Community Management and/or Social Media. They have 7 YOE in the game industry and 13 YOE professionally. I'm happy to share their resume and portfolio and get you connected with them!

the thing about indie games is that if someone designs one single game I love, Iโ€™ll get whatever they make for the rest of their lives and pretty much always have a good time. people are so attached to ip but imo you really gotta know the creators.

I've been intentionally off radar for a few years. Recently, I've been thinking more about slowly branching out again. I'm pondering recreating a personal Discord server, a social space to bridge friendships. Share my photography. Support one another with careers. Shoot the shit and have fun.

Leadership is about noticing when someone is struggling, and acting on it. Listening before judging. Making space for people to be human. Asking what I can do to help. Empathy doesnโ€™t make you a weaker leader. It makes people feel heard and safe enough to do their best work.

Art tip: don't share everything you draw. Draw things you never intend to show anyone. Your brain needs time to just exist in a state that's not about performing for strangers. This used to be the normal way to exist before social media poisoned us.
