About Liz Leo

I\'m a production lead who got her start in the world of graphic design and creative writing. I\'ve always loved telling stories, whether that be in the games industry or film production. Hungry to get out there and create I started a web series with three other producers called \"Job Hunters\", which ran for two seasons and was funded by two successful Kickstarters. Ever since then I\'ve searched to find work that brings me joy in the creative process, even if that joy is found in carefully creating a complex schedule or Power BI dashboard. I am skilled at managing programs and processes that empower teams of creative minds to hit dependencies, achieve goals, and reach for unique vision. Specialized Areas of Expertise:• Creative Producing• Project Management• Program Management• Comprehensive Branding• Video Production• Dynamic StorytellingI have participated in panels for both PAX West and Emerald City Comic Con on my contributions to Magic as well as Mental Health in Gaming. I have completed National Novel Writing Month (a challenge of writing words each November) 18 years running.
