HOBBY SPOTLIGHT

Fun fact: Joe started playing the board game “Pandemic” in December 2019. (Talk about premonition!) What Joe likes about gaming: • It provides enjoyment, fun, relaxation, and nostalgia • It’s a great way to socialize • Sharing his hobbies with his loved ones makes gaming more special It started when he received a Nintendo Entertainment System for Christmas at five years old. From then on, he’d ask for new video games every holiday and birthday. He also started playing board games in his mid-20s. Joseph Carlson is a National Account Manager. His work requires him to be an expert in planning, directing, and coordinating. Joe also leverages these when he’s gaming too.

What Joe finds challenging about gaming: • Finding time • Learning new mechanics
