And so that was fall of 2019. And I was like, well, if I'm quitting my job because remote work doesn't exist in 2019, I'm coming to Seattle. I'm going to try to break into the gaming industry, what I've always wanted to do, because in New York, it just doesn't happen. It's really hard unless you're already in it. There's really just rock star out there.

So I tried to, I interviewed for like two years across every known studio, or really just applied, not much interview going on, because who's gonna hire some guy from finance background that's not applying for a finance role that wants to make video games?

But this role with the Bungie Foundation came across my computer screen one day, and they were looking for someone who had video game desires and interests and some nonprofit experience, and I had done some nonprofit stuff. through my work back in New York. And I was like, okay, yeah, this sounds great. Why not? And I wasn't really sure what the role was going to be like.

And I ended up getting the job and I fell in love with it. We've grown the Bungie Foundation so much over the past three plus years. The role I ended up working was definitely not what I was hired to do.
