As of March 1st, I'm taking the lead of the Platform Strategy Department at the Pokémon Company. In a nutshell, my job is to connect Pokémon with technologies from around the world (and other potential new things) to create new experiences, like Pokémon GO and Pokémon Sleep. There are several reasons for taking on this job: 1. The Pokémon Company employees I've worked with over the years have been outstanding. 2. I've always wanted to be at the intersection of entertainment and technology. 3. It seemed like a great opportunity to satisfy my intellectual curiosity by staying on the cutting edge technology. There are a few other reasons that might provoke controversy, so let's save those for a time when we can chat over drinks! I feel the world (especially tech field) is changing quite dramatically these days. As technology permeates our world, entertainment invariably plays a role in this process, and I believe Pokémon and myself can contribute in accelaraing this process. If you have any interesting business ideas, technologies, or concepts that could synergize with Pokémon, please let me know. I'm willing to travel anywhere in the world!

Game Devs of Color Expo was a success! Here are 4 of my takeaways from this weekend: 1. Common knowledge is not common 📖. - Personal insights = great opportunity to share knowledge on overlapping topics. 2. T-shaped candidates are great collaborators 🕸️. - Specialized focus is ideal if looking to land your first paid role in games. - Being aware of adjacent specialties makes you a smoother communicator. 3. Companies value your work only when there's value assigned to it 🔢. - Talk using metrics that translate to numbers (ideally $). 4. At work, 3 factors determine the strength of your role 💸. - pay rate - learning opportunities - relational opportunities Yet pay is least important for long-term professional growth.

Does your games industry job search make you feel anxious?   Let me throw some questions your way to ask yourself.   Why does the job search make you feel anxious?   How can you solve that problem, so you don’t feel anxious anymore?   Can you fundamentally still be a happy and fulfilled person even if not working in games?   Is this career worth it to you?   What is your plan right now while the economy is taking a hit, and what will your plan be when everything inevitably bounces back?   Is your plan to work in games realistic and does it contain tangible goals?   I’ll leave you with this.   If your plan is to take some courses for a year and try to land a job at Riot Games, Blizzard, Ubisoft, etc. pls. Just stop. That’s not realistic.   Need help creating a realistic plan that works for you? Reach out.   Let’s get you moving in the right direction. #gamesindustry #careercoaching #growth #mindset

Hello everyone, reposting for visibility and an update on my situation. I am beyond devastated to say this but, I am losing my house and forced to move back with my parents, with the only way to keep the house is if I have a job before May 6th. I begging to anyone who sees this, if they have connections don't be afraid to DM me. I have been actively searching for jobs every hour for months with no success. It is extremely saddening and unfortunate that a student with a 4.0, with multiple awards, can't get a job. I have multiple skills including, interpersonal communication experience, photoshop/video editing, team player, excellent communicator, and so much more. The job market is extremely horrible and often times in order to live Mr. beast needs to know you exist (Not insulting you, Jimmy!). My only goal in life is to give to those who are less fortunate than me. I don't want an expensive life with lavish things. I want to be able to give and not think of myself at all while living somewhat comfortably. And quick note here, there are other people that have worse situations than mine, if anything was learned here if you made it this far, please go help them. The ones suffering in hospitals and can't pay the bills on gofundme, go help those people. I want to make the sacrifices so others can live better. Even a little bit of help to someone goes a long way and they will remember that. Thank you for coming to my personal TedTalk #jobless #money #sustainability #education #helpinghands #digital #team #work #love #share #helpinghand #media #life #university #sustainable #success #teambuilding #workforce #market #jobmarket
