Santa Fe, New Mexico
October 2025

I had a great kickoff meeting with Andrea J. Tapia from the Santa Fe County Clerk‘s office, and my fellow volunteer board members Marc Geller, Catherine Lynch, and our youth representative, Alana.
I especially appreciated having a chance to speak with Alana and get her thoughts about how to increase youth involvement and awareness with the County Clerk’s office.
My thanks again to Andrea and her colleagues for inviting me to participate in their Youth Engagement volunteer board.
I am looking forward to working with my fellow volunteer board members to be of service to the County Clerk’s office and our community, here in the beautiful city of Santa Fe.
I am honored to share that I have been appointed to serve on the Youth Engagement & Veteran Services Advisory Boards for the Office of the Santa Fe County Clerk.
This is a two-year term that will provide me with a chance to contribute to the strategic direction and operational effectiveness of the office.
Most importantly, I look forward to working with my fellow board members and our veteran and youth communities here in Santa Fe on election awareness, administration, public records, and accessibility.
I would like to thank Andrea J. Tapia, CPO, CPS, Elections Administration Supervisor, her colleagues, and Santa Fe County Clerk Katharine E. Clark for this opportunity to give back to a city and community that I proudly call home.
This is a fascinating article on the history of a very early CRPG, Oregon Trail.
Fast forward to the 2020s, as the industry has grown and more developers have stepped forward, so have perspectives widened too. Season, I think, is a great example of that, sitting alongside Oregon Trail.

I am thankful that game development has expanded beyond North America and is now almost a global arena of voices, perspectives, and experiences.
