Swallowing my pride and humbling my ego for a second,
I was laid off in January which means my journey to get back to work is approaching six months (which feel like the six longest months of my entire life). It's kinda disheartening that I finally get my foot into the gaming space after years working my way in by learning various marketing skills and really learning what makes gaming as a medium (video and tabletop games) really resonate with people in different industries.
Then the tech layoffs started happening and now the companies that are hiring want more experience for even just entry-level specialist positions. I know gaming as an industry has its ebbs and flows but this is straight up, not fun.
If anyone is looking for a marketer that is passionate about getting people to try new experiences in the gaming space, one that is passionate about storytelling and making the gamers the stars of the show, I'd love to chat. Also, me being a father of four, I'm very passionate about introducing tech in early education as a way of helping bridge the gaps of accessibility in schools via things like 3D printing and tabletop gaming.
Any likes, shares, and comments would be appreciated.
