Took time to enjoy being with friends, but I'm now officially open to work. I have 12 years in the games press and experience in all forms of content. I specialize in live service games, where I provide proven world class coverage. Let's work together: [email protected]

I'm open to freelancing. You could have a 12-year editor writing for you! I'm expert level in Overwatch 2, Destiny 2 and live-service titles in general - but I know the wider industry like not many out there. [email protected]. RTs appreciated.
So, my turn. Today, I was made redundant at @Dexerto. I loved what I did there. I know people can feel a way about Dex, but I hold my amazing, diverse, and intelligent team in my heart. And honestly, I balled out of control for a while there. Can't ask for more than that. 🫰

There may never have been a day as big as today for indie games. On the back of mass layoffs of major AAA studios, today more high-profile and under-the-radar gems are releasing on May 9th than any other day in recent memory. They need your support. Here's a thread of 'em! 🧵

I've been laid off from @Bungie. A surreal thing to write as I sit here pondering what went wrong. I'm still processing it all and while my first instinct is anger I know I'd regret what I'd say. Thank you to everyone at Bungie who helped make my last 5+ years the best ever.

Unfortunately, I was also affected by the layoffs at Epic Games yesterday. Though it came as a shock and I am still processing, I'm proud of my work at Epic/Fortnite and happy to have made friends with so many kind and talented people. Looking forward to my next adventure!

It's been an amazing ride working with some of the most talented people in the industry during my 7+ years at Epic But today that time has come to an end. I wouldn't trade the time, experiences, or friendships for anything I love you all and look forward to this new journey❤️

After 6 years, I was laid off at Epic. Dope time, amazing peeps, unforgettable memories. Most know it’s been incredibly rough for me and this complicates things even more. I’m hospital level with my health this week and Niki and I just bought our first home 3 weeks ago. Cool.

I was laid off today. So I'm putting out the feelers. If you know of any positions open, feel free to send them my way! I've got 6 years of experience working in gaming, almost all of that in Influencer Marketing and Relationship Management.

👏OPENING... for.. commissions :O👏 Street Casual/Mixed Gear Character Design I'm not used to commissions; please be patient 🙇‍♀️ Interest & Info Form: forms.gle/HZq8umgBNzb5n8Z68 There's already a few on my to-do list, but once through I'll start picking from submissions🙏
There are still a lot of items left on my sister's baby shower registry 😟 I'll likely open for commissions soon to help get more for her. Handling commissions has always been somewhat overwhelming to me, the # interested, so I welcome suggestions on how to take them on.
