- Why do you personally believe esports is important, both to our region and in general?
-
So much of who I am as a person, both personally and professionally, reflects growing up as a traditional sports athlete. Competition and being coached helped make me who I am, and I feel strongly that everybody should be able to get that experience even if sports aren’t for them.
-
- What games did you grow up playing and what are you playing the most now?
-
I grew up going from Sega, to N64, to Gamecube (my favorite system of all time), to Xbox, and played on my Gameboy every car ride during each phase. Pokemon was the most impactful game to me and still brings out the 8 year old version of me. Today, I enjoy watching pro play much more than I enjoy playing games myself. If I play a game, it is either Nintendo games while hosting friends (Mario Party/Kart/Smash Bros) or Hearthstone Battlegrounds on my phone.
-
- If you could only play one game for the rest of your life, what would it be?
-
I would not recommend others doing this… but it would have to be World of Warcraft. I don’t think there is a game better suited to consume every hour of every day. But it would have to be WoW Classic for me. For The Horde!
