Head of Business Development

Developer / Business Analyst

A lifelong autodidact and polymath, I love to learn new things whenever possible. I've been responsible for helping numerous businesses extract data and focus their energy on their weakest areas, while zeroing in on increasing growth via marketing and a deeper knowledge of their industry. eSports became a large part of my life while playing CS 1.3, and learned over time that I love to soak in the knowledge which watching professionals play gives me, to better my own game with.

Web Designer

I do a lot of the website design and development for F3, I also help with promotional graphics occasionally as well. I've been addicted to video games since before I could walk, started playing Counter-Strike in early 2001 and got my first look at a competitive eSports scene shortly after. eSports was quickly burned into my mind at that point and has always been something I've wanted to move my career towards.

Streamer

I'm a Twitch.tv streamer whose main focus is MOBAs with the few exceptions of a few fps, mmo, & adventure games.

I want nothing more than to interact with the gaming community & act as a liaison between the various gaming communities to show that while we may be different in play styles & metas, we are all gamers & that should be what binds us together & not tear us apart.
