So - why 'Tales of an Industry Nobody'? I actually worked in the gaming industry for the better part of a decade in Quality Assurance, eventually making my way up to department senior management. It was a childhood dream come true - and while the industry and I have gone down different paths, that time in gaming has led to a 20+ year career in software QA and an appreciation of the development process. And while being an 'Industry Nobody' is equal parts tongue in cheek and 100% accurate, it's that love of the industry and a lifelong love of video games that led to me creating the channel in 2019.

Games are good. We should play more games.
