We Are LANFEST: From Modder to Mentor

At a young age, Haley’s enthusiasm for LANs and technology surged. Winning PC modding competitions and initiating a LAN event in Fort Wayne marked the start. It was through these endeavors she discovered LANFest and its community, compelling her to integrate FortLAN into its fold. LANFest provided crucial resources and tools, enabling her team’s growth and community impact.

Her engagement with LANFest deepened, leading to volunteer work and acquiring skills in project management, event coordination, and marketing. This experience facilitated her career aspirations in the tech industry, a dream seeded by numerous conventions attended since childhood.

Support from people at LANFest were instrumental in navigating the tech industry, empowering her to make meaningful contributions to her chosen field.

Now years later, with two sons and a fiancé sharing her tech interests, life is filled with challenges and opportunities presented by LANFest. Holding roles such as Sponsorship Coordinator, Project Manager, board member of the Indiana Esports Network, and FortLAN Chapter admin, she realizes her dream, all thanks to LANFest.
