First, how did you get your start in esports?

I ran into the owner of SK Gaming when I was in Hollywood at an In and Out Burger. I was working on video content then and was able to transfer my skills there. I climbed through the ranks of esports there and managed two amateur (Challenger)  League of Legends teams and helped them make it to the pro level – the League of Legends Championship Series to the national level (Renegades & Misfits). It would be like being a general manager of a college team and them winning the rose bowl to make it into the NFL if there were qualifications into the NFL – that kind of equivalent. – the Los Angeles Renegades later rebranded as the Detroit Renegades and Misfits Gaming in Europe.
