This will be very corny - we really care about our people here at Bright Star Studios. As Ember Sword grows in popularity and complexity, we need to make sure that the right people are filling the right positions and, perhaps more importantly, are taken care of. This is where our Operations Manager Chris comes in. Hear how his military background prepared him to be the best people person we could’ve possibly brought into the fold. Learn where he sees Bright Star going as a people-oriented company. And have a chuckle at his crippling Overwatch addiciton.

Lorecast - I Believe In Myself
