"The IGDA Foundation marked a 'before' and 'after' in my professional career. I had no support when I decided to get into games, but the Foundation gave so many resources and helped me make a wonderful network of the most amazing people I've ever known. I'm so grateful and so happy to be part of it, I wouldn't trade it for anything."
