Why I love working at The Go Game?

I grew up around performers. It's my life! My godfather, Juney Smith, was a Hollywood actor and director. He and my father were best friends and together founded the Harlem Renaissance Theater Group. Joseph Simmons, known as Run of Run-DMC and Rev Run, is a close family friend. Our families grew up together in Queens, New York, so he has always been “Uncle” to me. I learned early that entertainment is a craft, and that great performers read the room and make every person feel part of the experience. Beyond my family, I’ve practiced that craft for over 25 years as an educator. Teaching isn’t just about knowledge; it’s about performance and delivery. Every class is a live audience, and as a former lead instructor, I learned to keep energy high and bring hesitant people into the action, in English and Spanish. Outside of the classroom, I have real hosting experience. I’ve been with The Go Game for five years, hosting mostly trivia games in English and Spanish, plus the Mystery Theater game. I’m a bilingual virtual host at Hooray Teams, I was an event host and trainer at Goodera, and I run my own emcee and DJ company, Seven Suns Entertainment. Working across several companies has shown me what works with every kind of group. What I bring: energy that fits the room, clear and quick instructions, bilingual hosting, and calm under pressure when tech or schedules go sideways. Plus, I bring a little bit of that DJ flair, with music and special effects! I haven’t hosted a Go Game event in a few years, and I’m excited to learn the current lineup and get back in front of players. Taken together, my family history, my teaching, and my hosting experience give me deep respect for the craft and the skills to connect with any group. I'm ready to get back and have some fun!
