In 2015, Danni began growing the BMG community and helping designers. Their passion for helping others and desire to bolster diversity in the board game industry are driving factors for the company's direction.

Joseph is a game designer and self-publisher who has a passion for playing and designing games that started at a young age and has only grown stronger since. Joseph assists the BMG team with web and graphic design, marketing, event organizing, and discord moderating. Besides playing board games, he also loves gardening, videography, 3D printing, and other home DIY projects.

Connor Shearwood is a software developer and game designer from the United Kingdom who joined the BMG mod team in 2020. They build scale models, makes games and has an unhealthy obsession with space.

Josh is a game designer from the Philadelphia area. When he was young, he made simple board games out of leftover cardboard. Now, he makes slightly less simple board games out of leftover cardboard. (And sometimes virtual cardboard!) He's been hosting online events with BMG since 2022, and he enjoys the opportunity to collaborate with other designers and grow alongside the rest of the community.

Joe lives with their partner, baby, and cat in Minnesota and is currently busy pondering some small or major change to one of their many unpublished games. As a moderator, they are here to help you! Joe has a M.S. in mathematics and could be convinced to help calculate the probability of something.

Jeff has been designing games his whole life, but he only recently started taking it seriously after realizing that regular people can indeed get their board games published. The BMG community has been essential for that journey, and he wants to help others make that same leap. Jeff lives with his wife, kids and cats near Chicago.

Vicki is a game designer, an enthusiast of learning how things work, and a software developer. Vicki takes pleasure in just about anything at the intersection of logic and creativity.

Matthew is a game designer and publisher that holds a love for silly stocking caps and hanging with his sleepy greyhound. Having experienced the journey of bringing a game from concept to reality, Matthew deeply respects what BMG does for the tabletop community and wants to continue and encourage its work toward fostering inclusive and empowering playtesting communities.

Xoe is an eccentric game designer and boardgame tech support. It joined Break My Game to guide others towards accessible playtesting platforms, help host playtest events, and screech obnoxiously about the oppression of metrics.

Brett is a musician, writer, and game designer who derives way too much joy from making spreadsheets. His early fascination for strategy games - starting a Lines of Action strategy blog and designing maps for an online Risk knock-off - led him to board game design and this community of designers, artists, and publishers helping each other fulfill their visions. Brett hopes to apply his experience as a Director of Marketing to bolster Break My Game’s public profile and continue growing the community.

Jamie has been in love with games for their entire life, and has been designing games almost as long. They started their professional journey into the board game industry in 2016, to finally get their ideas out into the world and champion the causes they care about - making board games that create a sense of community around them, and making the gaming community as a whole feel welcoming to people of all kinds. They're thrilled to now be a part of the Break My Game team, and help others who feel like "others" find solace and community in the board game creator space!
