This Friday will be my last day with Giant Bomb as per the announcement on the Bombcast today. I'm so proud of everything we've accomplished over the years and so thankful for everyone that has been a positive part of it. It has shaped who I am.

Happy July 3rd! Years ago we lost our friend and coworker, Ryan Davis. He lives on in the amazing memories and stories we all from his time with us. Take some time to make your life a positive part of someone else’s.

Seeing a lot of fun Ryan moments passing through my timeline. Still think about him a lot and his perspective on life. His passing did teach me that living forever really means being part of everyone's most cherished memories and I am forever grateful to him for it.
