Serhii Komar + Follow on AmazonSerhii Komar is a game developer and entrepreneur who taught himself. He started out with a book on programming and a passion to make games. His initial venture, a mobile puzzle game, showed that making games could become more than just a hobby.
After an initial studio failure, he decided to bet everything, selling his flat to fund a new studio and working from his office to reduce costs. That decision provided the strategic inflection point to change to free-to-play games. A publishing deal followed, which allowed his studio to generate repeat revenues and build a platform to grow.
He went on to establish multiple game development studios, head teams, and launch commercially successful games over the years. His experience varies from small-scale development to dealing with publishers, managing monetization, and scaling for large audiences.
Outside of development, he speaks at conferences, universities, and podcasts about game business strategies and sustainable development. He also mentors independent developers, offering guidance on creating and growing a studio.
Outside the office, he occupies himself playing with his baby son and arguing game design with his programmer wife. He attributes patience, flexibility, and learning from failure as the keys to long-term success. Serhii embraces engagement with entrepreneurs and developers. He publishes a newsletter with insights, creates LinkedIn posts for discussion, and tweets business news. He is just as pleased to offer advice to those who would wish to engage with him on game development as on conducting business.
Ana Parra Vivas + Follow on AmazonAna Parra Vivas is an Internationally Bestselling, Multi-Award-Winning Author, and Well-Balanced Lifestyle Manifestation Expert.
After achieving success in a high-level marketing position at a Fortune 500 company, Ana felt burnout, frustrated, and guilty that her career was taking time away from her children and family. She did not feel fulfilled as a woman and harbored negative feelings and thoughts that caused her stress and anxiety.
She changed her thinking and established mental habits that gave her the strength and confidence to homeschool her two children, write her first book, strengthen her marriage, and become a very creative vegan chef – which she would accomplish in one year.
Drawing on her own experiences, Ana teaches working moms how to achieve ultimate work-life balance by guiding them with activity management strategies, cultivating daily healthy mental habits, and unlocking the power to manifest a new chapter of success and prosperity in their personal and professional lives.
J.N. Haskin + Follow on AmazonJennifer Haskin is passionate about helping new authors with their writing journey, as well as achieving their publishing goals. Eight years ago, she learned the ropes of the publishing world as a literary agent for a boutique agency before moving to a New York-based agency (then had to drop out for a string of back surgeries), then she returned as a publishing consultant, helping authors ready their submission materials to get the best shot at the contract of their dreams, and now she works as a professional Reedsy editor, Associate Editor for a small press, and head editor of her own business.
