A homeschooled middle child who played 'Titanic: Adventure Out of Time' when she wasn't touring California bars as part of her all-sister rock band: Beth Elderkin is an engaging and skilled multimedia professional who’s proud to be weird, nerdy, and unique. Beth is currently the content marketing manager for the GDC Festival of Gaming. She serves as Project Lead for GDC's annual State of the Game Industry report, GDC Trends Report, and the GDC Side Quest Podcast. Her knowledge and passion for the video games industry gives her a unique perspective in engaging with developers and players alike. She spent a decade of her youth as lead singer and guitarist of the all-sister rock band Third Eclipse. She's classically trained as a mezzo-soprano and currently performs at the Carolina Renaissance Festival. She loves playing video games and GMing tabletop roleplaying games, and looks forward to the day when her 5-year-old son wants to try Dungeons & Dragons.
