As a Partner Marketing Manager at Discord, Armando is focused on developing brand and content marketing campaigns to help Discord reach players. He is passionate about the potential for gaming to unite friends and bring joy to people’s lives. Being a first-generation college student, Armando deeply knows the importance of championing others and dedicates his time outside of work to connect with emerging talent. He has served on the Advisory Board for We Are Next, where he spearheaded the Brand Ambassador Program, the Young Talent in Tech team, and the widely popular Coffee at a Distance. He currently serves on the ADCOLOR Advisory Board, the University of Illinois' James Webb Young Board, and the Creative Ladder's Community Council. Armando also loves LEGO, playing video games, annotating books so much to the point you can’t read them, and wearing watches where it’s hard to tell the time. If you ever want to chat, Armando’s virtual door is always open.
