Justin Thompson
President/Convention Director - Founder of the PrezCon Game Convention

In 1994, with the help Brian Carr and Michael Reynolds, Justin's dream of running a successful game convention in Charlottesville Virginia became a reality when the PrezCon WINTER NATIONALS were born. Since its humble beginnings PrezCon has grown to be one of the premier winter game conventions on the east coast.

As President and CEO, Justin's responsibilities to PrezCon included the overall organization and operations of the Con. Justin's current goals are to grow PrezCon into a major gaming force by running a convention that will appeal to all veteran gamers while bringing in new blood as well.

Send him questions concerning tournaments, demo's or if you want to GM a game. He is also the guy who makes your track schedule and can answer all of your questions pertaining to our schedule.

Justin is a three time winner of the Kingmaker World Championships and is currently the #1 rated Area Rated player for Kingmaker in the World. He enjoys role-playing, miniatures, card games, and board games.
