Esports journalism like trad sports • Journalist • Bylines: The Sporting Tribune, NHL.com • FGC & Riot ecosystem, with other games to come. 🎰 Vegas Born, World Inspired 🌍 My bio: An award-winning (albeit regional) sports journalist moving into the colorful world of esports. I've sat down with Faker, Knee, Arslan Ash, Anakin, and more across the FGC and the Riot ecosystem (LCS, Valorant) with hopes of expanding to more games. I’m building the kind of access that comes from genuinely being part of this community, not just covering it from outside. Esports have incredible stories. I tell them with the same depth and care traditional sports journalism brings to a wide range of topics. 🎥 New videos weekly.
