Ruty Rutenberg Email and Phone Number
**Sadly, it seems to have become necessary in recent days for me to start by saying: if you open with a “business solutions” solicitation or asking for a job, I will delete your connection request and likely block your account. If you want to “help” my business/me, cultivate a relationship first. If that doesn’t fit your AI business model, please orbit elsewhere. My inbox full of people who actually need help and reciprocate the appreciation for genuine connection, you are taking that time from them. Feel good? Sucks for everyone else. If that’s not you and you have a genuine desire to connect, please continue. I would *genuinely* be excited to connect.**Now, ACTUALLY “About Me”:With over a decade of experience as a game writer, producer, teacher, and consultant, I am determined to continuously evolve my craft, creating immersive and inclusive stories that resonate with diverse audiences at core emotional levels. As Narrative Lead at various AAA studios, I've managed talented teams of award-winning writers, oversaw narrative vision and execution, and collaborated with various disciplines and stakeholders to ensure the highest quality of narrative content.As with every story, there's so much more, and I'm happy to discuss and learn about you, too. Don't hesitate to reach out and connect.
