Speaker Reese Valentine (they/them)
Business with Reese: Values! At the discussion table
If you are collaborating with other people, you should really understand who you are, and who your collaborators are. One method Reese recommends to everyone is to understand and set your collective Values. Reese will first explain what they mean exactly when they talk about values and how to set your values, then they will lead a group discussion on the topic.
Reese Valentine is a queer trans masc founder of a worker cooperative named Amelore, a game development studio that focuses on thoughtfully crafted stories & digital media. They are passionate about studio development, having a healthy worklife balance, and creating art that speaks to your soul. Reese wears many hats, a small selection including bizdev, production, & rigging/animation.
