“Paul was the Product Manager on LoL's in-game events (and my creative partner-in-crime) from 2014 to 2018 as we delivered a golden era of events for League of Legends together with a multitude of other cross-discipline teams within Riot. While my team delivered the gameplay and game modes, Paul worked tirelessly pulling together all the other parts of each event, helping bring cohesion and consistency to the event experience delivered to players. These formative years really defined for players what 'an event in League of Legends' looked like and set the bar for years to come. Paul's creativity and willingness to engage with me on deeper creative, design or narrative specific elements was always welcome. His design sense + knowledge of other team's capabilities gave him the ability to suggest alternative ways we could often achieve player experiential goals, and led to some of the most memorable moments for LoL players ever. Paul's energy is infectious, and his clear, direct comms style is welcome when leading complex and difficult projects that span multiple teams. Paul is seasoned at delivering tough news in a way that is no nonsense, but still respectful and encourages team to be forward facing. I'd be delighted to jam with Paul again one day, somewhere, sometime, if the universe allows it. GG mate.”
