i experienced my first time being a part of pc staff, modding 4th gen forums at the time (primarily diamond & pearl. platinum wasn't even out yet!). it was an exciting time for early teenage me. i felt super cool, but more than that, i felt excited that i get to contribute to something bigger. this didn't work out for a lot of reasons that i don't want to get into, but more importantly i was happy i had the opportunity to be a part of pc staff.

august 4th, 2016.

i experienced my second time being a part of pc moderation, first time in nearly a decade. much like previously, i was ecstatic to be a part of something bigger and to make a difference! without leaking, i was far from perfect. i made a lot of mistakes along the way. i made a promise to better myself, though. i couldn't let myself be the same person that i was before, and i take that very seriously. every time i feel like i've set myself back, i resolve myself to move forward as much as i can and better myself. this moment on staff was full of bumps, and i've nearly crashed a few times, but i've corrected course before i did (thankfully). making a difference is important to me, and i held myself to that. i couldn't move forward if i was constantly holding myself back.

august 23rd, 2018.

i got an internal promotion to lead the mod team. something i never would've seen coming! not only am i being given the opportunity to shape staff policy, but i would also get an opportunity to have a say on higher staff matters such as promotions! it was exciting for me. not that this is relevant information publicly (oops), but it helped me really develop my leadership skills and have them shine!

and now... march 31st, 2021.

it's really hard to believe it happened. it really is! this is a really big deal to me especially because my pc journey has been filled with a lot of people who tried to knock me down. it has been filled with people who never gave me the time of day, who saw far more interest to put me down than to give me a chance. when i was offered this promotion, i honestly thought i was dreaming! it just wasn't possible for me. i was pacing around at work with fat smile on my face and it was just.... i dunno. sure, it's a volunteer position on a pokemon forum, but it's more to me simply because of how bumpy my past was and how many of those people didn't believe in me.

thank you everyone. this really means a ton to me. ❤ like now, and like every time before, i want to drive to make a positive difference and that has never changed c:
