“I have learned so much and I have overcome so many fears that I know without this opportunity I wouldn’t have. Whether it’s the experiences, the creativity, the people, the storytelling, or finally being able to build that taco restaurant he always wanted to, Davey has enjoyed his many years with The Sims. “I have learned a lot about not only my heritage, but also how important it is for everyone to feel represented in the game or anywhere else.” He added, “This game has inspired me and has given me the strength to fight for a lot of things in the real world, such as equality.” As his site grew, so did his understanding of the world and what cultural exchange really meant.

It was soon after that he found himself entrenched in a large community of hispanic gamers sharing a passion for The Sims and its creativity. Living in Mexico, Davey later launched, a news site dedicated to reporting on all things Sims. “I was totally into it just from hearing that idea.” He soon realized there was so much more to experience. “A friend of mine told me about this game where you could create digital people and their houses,” he told us. At first he was hooked on the building and living elements of the game. “Wow, when you say it out loud it sounds crazy,” he thought. Davey, better known as Simlish4, has been playing The Sims since 2004.
