I’m pleased to more formally announce that I’ll be speaking at GDC this year! Our diversity in game audio roundtable from 2024 was a resounding success and we’ve expanded it to include 6 speakers across 3 days!
On Wednesday, March 19th from 3:30pm - 4:30pm in Room 312, South Hall, we'll focus on building empathy and understanding in the game audio community - discussing how personal growth and diverse interests can build new connections, navigating cultural differences, and examining things from a hiring perspective.
On Thursday, March 20th from 11:00am - 12:00pm in Room 314, South Hall, we'll explore concrete strategies for making change, focusing on implementing diversity initiatives, addressing challenges in networking, and understanding neurodiversity when working with a team.
Finally, on Friday, March 21st from 10:00am - 11:00am in Room 308, South Hall, we'll conclude with a discussion of systemic barriers and long-term solutions - specifically around improving opportunity pipelines & addressing financial barriers to entry.
This is going to be an incredible series of discussions - can't wait to see you there!
