Thank you all for the outstanding support. Beyond thrilled to announce starting Monday I will join

as the Director of Esports focused on

. From inception I waved the antenna flag of RL and honored to join the insanely talented team
Incredibly emotional day as today marks my last day at ESPN after 15.5 years. What an amazing list of invaluable experiences and relationships I’ve built within the intersection of sports and games. Taking time to reflect, but way too excited to start the new adventure.
