I'm Gaylen J. Pruitt — a community and outreach strategist with 10+ years of experience in online media… and a new author!

About Me

My focus has always been on the intersection of community, content, and data — understanding what players and audiences need, then building the strategies and teams to deliver it.

When I’m not working, I read, study history (especially Roman & Early American), and write fiction.

My first novel, Wrath of the Burnt Gods, released in 2026. I’ve also written several short stories that you can find at my Substack HERE.

Experience: I've worked in digital and online media since 2005, building and leading communities for companies including Zynga, Viacom, and Sony — across brands like FarmVille 2, Vampire Wars, NeoPets, and The Jersey Shore.

Education: I graduated from Portland State University's school of business in 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a certification in Social Innovation.
