Linh L. is a Narrative Writer II at Riot Games at Riot Games. Colleagues describe them as "Linh's strong knowledge in Pokemon, passion for PGO, a collaborative attitude and creative storytelling skills not only make them a valuable contributor to the team, but also a pleasure to work with. They took great pride in writing interesting stories and enjoyed watching how players immersed/entertained by them. They are creative, authentic and empathetic - a great addition to any team.", "I have had the absolute pleasure of managing Linh directly at Niantic in their role as a writer and editor for Pokémon GO. From their very first day Linh was process focused, a team player, and incredibly motivated when it comes to making our team and our process is the best they could be. Linh brought a level of organization and project management that we were lacking on the editorial side while bringing in fresh creativity to make our narrative throughout the game and marketing copy as engaging as possible. Linh brings structure and enthusiasm to every project they touch which is extremely critical when you are working cross functionally and with external partners. Their attention to detail, unmatched creative talent, and their incredible work ethic makes Linh a valued asset no matter what team they are on. They are trustworthy and has earned the trust of our cross functional teams and our external partners which is invaluable. When it comes to growth, it has been amazing to see Linh develop their narrative muscle even further. Linh had already had the skills and creativity to handle the narrative world of Pokémon GO, but after joining the team they have added new depth and character development that was sorely needed. Their fresh perspective, affinity for the brand, and the talent of learning how to speak through characters while still making them sound like unique individuals is a talent that is not often found. I am so excited to see what Linh does in the future as their narrative skill set truly sets them apart. As Linh’s manager, I found working with them incredibly rewarding. They are understanding of the process, open to feedback, and operates with honesty and transparency. They bring their true authentic self to work every day and is not afraid of having the difficult conversations. However, because of their kind and direct approach, the difficult conversations end up not being as difficult as there is mutual understanding and respect. As a manager, this is incredibly helpful as you always know where things stand with Linh so that you can both continue working towards the a mutual goal of team success. Being able to function as a team, collaborate as peers on projects, and understanding how our roles supported each other made managing and mentoring Linh one of my favorite things I ever did at Niantic. They are truly one of a kind and any team would be lucky to have them as a leader, cheerleader, and collaborator.", and "In her time working for me at MZ, Linh stood out for creativity, diligence, and adaptability. The task of crafting communications to players is a challenging and complex one, complete with notions of user segmentation, player management, and a good sense of marketing. Not only did Linh exceed at this role, she became better at it over time, responding quickly to feedback and extending her skills to go beyond what was asked, anticipate future needs, and demonstrate independence."
