Jess is focused on reimagining what gaming could be through restorative design. Having worked on a number of award-winning games and in a variety of roles across the industry, her adventures have led her into the natural and magical world of Everwild, as a Senior Technical Designer at Rare. When taking a quiet moment to breathe on this journey, Jess is exploring how we can practice meditation, mindfulness, and self-care through video games, and is deeply supportive of the cozy games movement.
