As a huge gamer for many years I was tired of the backlash and hate found in online gaming, as well as the the sexism that is found within stories and characters. Now that E-sports with big video game franchises has become more popular there has been little representation of women in professional gamers.

Through cross disciplinary research and the use of design research I created Less Shaming More Gaming. Which was inspired by Jessica Walsh’s Ladies Wine and Design. A grass-roots organization to combat gender exclusion within the gaming world.
