Support & Alignment

"Selling" the program and the ideas behind it was some of the most important work I've done. Not only did I need to be an expert in esports, but I also needed to become an expert in higher education. Understanding how both frameworks work together, tending to the needs of the program and the school, and aligning those values is tedious work.
