Moderator of /r/Warframe

/r/Warframe - Frontpage


I served as one of the moderators of an official fansite for the video game "WARFRAME" from the Summer of 2013 to end of year 2016. /r/Warframe is a sub-community on Reddit, a social media site focused on post content and forum-like discussion. Through this volunteer position I was able to network within the gaming industry, while being a formative part of Warframe's early fanbase. I remain proud of the community I helped foster as the game has continued to grow.
