LOS ANGELES, USA // Nevada Carney is a storyteller at heart, driven by a philosophy that the most impactful narratives tap into universal human truths, creating powerful connections with audiences. As Head of Strategy at Mutiny, Nevada leads campaigns for gaming’s top names, including Xbox, Activision, and Blizzard. Her approach always starts with player motivations, firmly rooted in the ‘why’ – why would players’ care? – a question that powered the “This is an Xbox” campaign, redefining what it means to be an Xbox, and informed social-first activations like the first-of-its-kind GIPHY and Call of Duty Replacer GIFs. With a diverse background spanning not only gaming but also entertainment, lifestyle, and tourism, Nevada brings a rich, multi-faceted perspective to crafting resonant strategies.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Nevada’s life is just as rich with adventure. She actively participates in D&D campaigns, jumps into co-op RPGs with friends, and frequently revisits the classic Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy. At home, she navigates the delightful chaos of three cats, one dog, and a spirited toddler.
