Welcome to the latest installment of Between Two Turrets, a Q&A series through which we connect you with various Rioters to chat about League, life, and anything in between. You can expect an installment every two weeks or so, with Rioters from all over jumping in to spend some time with you on the Boards.
This week, we've got we’ve got Creator Support Specialist (and prolific cosplayer!) Sarah "Jynx" Kulyk!
- Hey Everyone! I need to head back to work now, but will return later to answer some more questions. Thank you so much taking the time to chat with me today!
Hi Friends!
My name is Sarah, also known as ‘Jynx’ (no relation to the Loose Cannon). I’m Canadian, and work with the Creator Support Team in North America, with a focus on programs and support for cosplayers and community artists. In the past I’ve also worked on NA Social Media, and the Events QA team, assisting at LCS and other League eSports events.
I’ve been at Riot for over 2 and a half years now, but before that I worked with Electronic Arts, freelanced as an artist on some indie/social games, and completed a Bachelor of Media Arts with a major in animation.
I started playing League of Legends in Season 1, and quickly fell in love with the characters and co-op gameplay. It didn’t take long for me to start creating League cosplay and fan art after that! Since then my experiences with the community have been so rewarding, and I’m thankful to be a part of such a creative group. I love that I now get to support and work with content creators each day!
My adventure with games, cosplay and art has been a long one. I grew up as a dedicated console gamer, but now primarily play PC and Pen & Paper. I started creating art and costumes in the mid 1990’s, and have never been able to stop! Armor and weapons are my favorite things to build and theorycraft, and this is why my house is now filled with giant props and craft supplies...
Day to day I’m a bit of a hermit though, and spend a lot of time at home with my husband and 3 year old corgi St. Celestine, who also likes to help out at Riot. I love sci-fi, documentaries, obsess over Warhammer 40k a bit too much, and have a history of hoarding comics and other collectables.
I’m looking forward to chatting more with you all, so feel free to ask some questions and I’ll try and reply as quickly as possible (sorry, I’m not the fastest typer).
Thanks! Jynx
