Bio

I'm a creative director, producer, and host with over a decade of experience leading teams to create award winning, impactful work. As the Executive Director of Feminist Frequency and the Games and Online Harassment Hotline, my team and I work to end abuse in the games industry. The slightly longer version: I’m the creator of the award-winning Tropes vs Women in Video Games, a critically acclaimed video series exploring the history of women’s representation in gaming that has garnered nearly 14 million views on YouTube alone. My work as a media critic, public speaker, and producer who thrives at the intersection of digital culture, accessibility, and social justice helped create a new lexicon and sparked a paradigm-shifting conversation about improving the representations of marginalized people in video games. This work has propelled me into the international spotlight in the fight for an end to online harassment and all forms of toxic online behaviour. I care deeply about justice and that drive takes me in all sorts of directions, whether it’s hosting a podcast about feminism and popular culture, creating a video series about fascinating historical women who must not be forgotten, or building an emotional support hotline for the gaming community. But at the core of everything I do is the desire to dismantle the social, economic, and political barriers that put marginalized people at a disadvantage.
