"A True Friend and Community Powerhouse"
I've known him since the early days of Valve, and honestly, he's one of the most genuine people I've met in this space. Independent, but always there when you need him, he carries a warmth that makes everyone feel welcome. He's never chasing drama, never hurting anyone. On the contrary, he uplifts people with respect and true kindness. What I admire most is how consistent he is: whether he's throwing himself into every real-life event with all his energy, or just calling to check in as a friend, you can always count on him. He's the kind of person who turns a community into a family, and I'm happy to call him my friend.
