Jessica Chobot is a writer on Zombie Studios ' survival horror game Daylight. As a child, her family frequently moved along the east coast and around the midwest, to which her parents placated her with video games. After college, she worked for several years as an administrative assistant for a real estate agency where she met her first husband.
She enrolled in a part time graduate program to become an art teacher. When state laws about teacher certification changed, she had a " quarter-life crisis " that set off a significant chain of events. She became depressed, started playing World of Warcraft heavily, got a job at EB Games, and later spent all her savings on a ticket to Japan. Chobot calls the 3 week trip " transformative ", a validation of her interest in games and Japanese culture.
She returned to the US looking to get a job in the video game industry. During this time, Chobot started modeling to support her gaming and anime habit. On launch day for the PSP , she picked up her unit on the way to a shoot, where the now infamous photo was taken.
She jokingly sent it to a friend who worked in video game product placement, who encouraged her to send it to Kotaku. She did, but expected nothing of it. Kotaku posted it however, and was deluged by emails asking about her. Encouraged by the photo's success, she accepted an offer from the Kotaku's editor to write game reviews for a partner site. That year, she used her EB Games employment to get into E3, where she coincidentally stayed in the same hotel as Kotaku.
She accompanied them to the IGN E3 party, where she met an IGN representative who encouraged her to talk to their entertainment editor as a potential booth model. Impressed with her gaming experience and fascination with Japanese culture, the editor instead offered her freelance work for their insider channel.
So she left her old life, including her husband, to move to California to take her dream job. Once working at IGN, Jessica's career took off. She moved from freelancer to regular host of IGN Weekly, landed regular guest spots on Maxim radio, served as game advisor on The Daily Habit, and served as a dating advice columnist on IGN babes channel.
