Top Cut Comics - Loves Park is excited to add Regional Organizers Jimmy and Debbie Ballard of Top Cut Events to our team.
Jimmy has been an event organizer since 2007, learning the ropes from Vince Krekeler and Camille Peltier-Robson. Jimmy also has 6 worlds invites under his belt, capped off with his 2nd place finish, at worlds, in 2006. Jimmy has been involved in the game since 1999, and has worked alongside some of the prominent names in the game today. We are excited to have him shape and grow our community in the months and years to come.
