“Julian is an exceptional journalist with a true nose for stories that deviate from the traditional videogames churn. At PCGamesN he has been an encouraging force in seeking out community-led news and features, highlighting the most fascinating corners of gaming culture. When not writing himself, he successfully encourages and directs others to look at their own experiences and deeper interests to discover new takes on popular games and topics. Beyond Julian's ability to find, foster, or create interesting gaming stories, he has also proven himself an important part of PCGamesN's editorial team by providing warmth and heart in what can often be a busy and stressful environment. He offers vital encouragement and mentoring to junior members of staff, and is understanding of the emotional and professional needs of his peers. As such, Julian has proven himself not just a worthy writer, but a valuable and key colleague.”
