Meet Asante Bradford! Asante and I spoke back in May about his role within Georgia’s Department of Economic Development as the digital entertainment and innovation manager. He talked about his career at the state level, his own aspirations for the future of digital entertainment, and how Georgia is uniquely set up for expansing in this industry.

Meet Monica Dinsmore! I had the opportunity and pleasure of speaking with Monica at this year’s DreamHack gaming festival in Atlanta, GA. With the state of Georgia seeing a surge in the gaming industry, particularly in game development and esports, I jumped at the chance to ask the Head of Esports for EA Sports about their plans for expanding opportunities and fandom engagement in the state and worldwide.

Meet Deanna Durbin! She is a working wardrobe stylist and the creative director of Elva Mae. I sat with her at the premiere networking club in Atlanta, The Gathering Spot, to discuss her personal and professional journey. To Deanna, being a stylist is more than just picking the right clothes for her clients. Her mission is deeper.
