Kaleb Del Rio
Kaleb has been in the gaming community for over 15 years starting young with the Pokémon Trading Card Game but spent most of his childhood within the store learning every possible game that he could to further expand his knowledge and love for all things geeky.He's been working for Top Cut Comics for about 6 years now, spending most of that time at our South Rockford location to help it grow into the hot spot of gaming that it is today. I was drawn to the concept of the Forest City Community Cup (FC3) because I want as many people as possible to experience that childhood wonder that I did when I was growing up. Being able to meet people from all walks of life who can bond over a common interest. Favorite Magic Card: Unexpected Results |
