“So many wonderful things to say about Junae. Not only is she an incredible communicator, project manager and content creator, she also has the most incredible voice that the industry simply needs to hear. I was so thrilled to work with her, first hiring her as a featured streamer while she creating on Caffeine and as this year as a community development intern for PC Gamer. Junae ran an incredible game writers workshop on our twitch channel, wrote an inspiring an incredibly popular editorial piece showcasing Black content creators for our front page and approached all the standard community development tasks we gave her with creativity, wit and and enthusiasm. I strongly recommend you work with Junae, all her wonderful skills and capability aside, she's also a wonderful person and will be an asset to any team. Do hire. ”
