But in case you don\u2019t, here are some career highlights that changed the face of video gaming and culture to this very day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Justin was part of the game industry since day one after coming out of the Academy of Interactive Sciences and into D.I.C.E. Summit as a project manager in 2007. And it is from there that his career took off like a NASA space shuttle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>QA testing, licensing music for the next big game project, business development. All at different contract houses to build up his experience in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, His real claim to fame would come at a rapid pace when he joined South by Southwest, better known as SXSW, and founded SXSW Gaming as soon as he hopped on board. Turning it into a fast-growing gaming juggernaut at the time. He also joined another indie titan at the time, Devolver Digital fresh from Hotline Miami hype and fame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Justin felt SXSW wasn\u2019t enough and unfulfilled. Thus, he helped DreamHack expand its brand and turned its festival presence in gaming up to 110% all thanks to Good Shepherd Entertainment. A publisher that is majority owned by DevolverDigital. Combining gaming and lifestyle together into a culture that DreamHack still cultivates to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, he is the Portfolio Director and CP of Creative at Good Shepherd Entertainment and Dreamhack. Where he continues to stand at the helm at. And we are exceptionally honored to have such an esteemed veteran to be part of the Grand Jury Panel for the 2022 NYX Game Awards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LinkedIn:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/justburnham\/details\/experience\/\" class=\"external\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/justburnham\/details\/experience\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Good Shepherd Entertainment:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodshepherd.games\/\" class=\"external\">https:\/\/www.goodshepherd.games\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We love indie titles.
