Jacob will work as a chief reporter at the Nerd Street Gamers. At Dot Esports, he will also work as the main Investigative Lead.
“I had the privilege of covering the Esports over the last 7 years.” Said Jacob Wolf, Executive Producer and Founder of Overcome. “I take delight in saying that I have reported the esports events and seen its evolution over years”.
Although the industry has grown significantly, the art of storytelling and journalism remained unchanged. With the partnership with Nerd Street and Overcome, I hope to change the stories related to sports in a way that everyone loves reading them and understands them.
