My name is Connor Skaryd. I was born in West Palm Beach, Florida and I spent most of my childhood and teenage years growing up in Martin County, Florida. After high school I decided that I was tired of the warm tropical weather and moved up to the city of Grand Forks, North Dakota to attend the <a href=\"https:\/\/und.edu\/\">University of North Dakota<\/a> for my Bachelor\u2019s Degree. Having survived sub-zero winters for my undergraduate degree and learning the feeling of your breath freezing in your mouth from the cold weather, I returned to Florida and through a long and complex series of events, I started working for the Martin County Library System. I currently work as the senior Library Specialist for the Palm City Library where I am functionally the assistant manager of the branch.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6793\" style=\"width:341px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Massachusets-Image-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><br>Outside of work one of my great passions is playing tabletop role playing games like Dungeons and Dragons, Call of Cthulhu, and <a href=\"https:\/\/massifpress.com\/lancer\">Lancer<\/a>. I have routinely fallen into the role of a &#8220;forever GM&#8221; and I find deep satisfaction running games and creating amazing stories with friends that we can enjoy together. I am excited for this class since learning about the use of digital media will be a huge boon for me since I work with digital media in both my professional and personal life. I want to learn the tools and systems that would help me advance my career and the gaming experience I give to my players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greeting my fellow scholars and seekers of knowledge!
