• Outstanding Leadership Award - OTC Esports

Missouri Ghostbusters

I have dedicated my time and creativity to volunteering with a dynamic cosplay group focused on supporting the Children's Miracle Network of Missouri and various other charitable organizations. Through this experience, I have contributed to numerous events and activities aimed at bringing joy and inspiration to the southwest Missouri area. By embodying beloved characters and engaging with all ages alike, I have witnessed firsthand the positive impact of cosplay on the communities spirits and overall well-being. This role has not only honed my organizational and teamwork skills but has also deepened my commitment to using my talents to make a meaningful difference in the community. 

Eddie Warren

Charity Organization Leader

Eddie Warren is the leader of the Missouri Ghostbusters. We've worked together every step of the way to bring as much joy and inspiration as possible to each of our events. Our joint projects include fundraisers, promotional videos, costume and prop creation, and short films. Mr. Warren is an incredible and inspiring man who I've had the pleasure of learning from during my ongoing time with the organization.

Dr. Tiffany Ford

Esports Director

Dr. Tiffany Ford, director of the Computer Science program at OTC, oversees the Esports program and was my direct supervisor during my time with the program. We worked together to establish drills and training regimens for each individual athlete under my leadership in the program as well as organize events and promotional advertising material for the team as a whole. Dr. Ford is an immensely intelligent and hard working individual who I consider myself lucky to have directly learned from.
