Accounts have NOT all been reinstated, including my own. I've already sent a support ticket and DM'd the support account.
I have MULTIPLE professional working relationships associated with my discord account that I CANNOT RESPOND TO due to this false flag. Please fix this.
I've compiled some of my proudest work from my time at Bungie.
It has been a joy to contribute to the Destiny universe and bring life to its inhabitants, big and small.

@puppysnackz Idk if it’s just me but I have been seeing peoples levels of freak towards people who are even a little promiscuous on the internet has been increasing. I don’t know where they get the confidence to say those type of things unsolicited.
Last week was incredibly difficult.
I want to start by saying that my role was not cut, but almost my entire core team, excluding a small portion of us, are gone.
The Creative Studios team was part of the creative talent behind many of the visual marketing and brand assets you've seen for @DestinyTheGame and @MarathonTheGame over the years. The team was formed when @Bungie became a self-publisher in 2019, growing out of a much smaller group then known as VizD, or Visual Development. We were a small but mighty team, carrying forward a legacy of supporting marketing content for Halo and other early Bungie games.
Since 2019, our team grew to more than 30 people in order to sustainably support live service trailers, key art, logos, screenshots, composites, gameplay capture, motion graphics, production, technical capture infrastructure, and more. Working side by side with marketing and game developers, we worked closely within our own team and with a wide network of external creative agencies and freelancers to produce Bungie's player-facing marketing creative.
I had the privilege of helping build the Creative Studios art team as Bungie became a self-publisher and personally hired many of the talented artists and leaders across the team. Watching them grow into their roles and become the exceptional creatives or managers they are today will always remain one of the highlights of my career and one of the best parts of my job here.
Creative Studios was so much more than just a team to work with. It was a tight nit group of talented, thoughtful, and inspiring people, and I feel incredibly lucky to have been part of it.
To my peers in Creative Studios: you have been at the heart of so much of what makes Bungie special. Your creativity, passion, and vision helped shape the marketing visuals for games and worlds that so many players love. I truly hope you can look back at what we created together and feel proud, not only of the work itself, but of the impact each of you personally made.
Thank you for everything you gave to this team and to each other. Thank you for showing up for one another, for trusting me, for bringing so much talent and care to the work, and for making this team a true unicorn in an industry that rarely makes space for something this special.
I'm going to miss working with all of you more than I can put into words.
If you're a hiring manager, Art Director, or Creative Director hiring for the roles I listed above, please reach out. I'd be happy to share thoughtful recommendations based on your specific needs.
