🏛️ Leadership

The owner of Libre Galaxy Games is Martin, a university student pursuing a Bachelor of Business Administration in Information Systems and Analytics. He has over half a decade of experience running casual and professional Minecraft servers, which has taught him how to cultivate high-quality community members and conflict resolution.


As a self-motivated technologist, Martin codes plugins for the server, develops https://libregalaxy.org, and uses Linux on his personal and server hardware. After first playing Minecraft during his childhood, his love for the game has continued as a platform for creative expression. This vision informs how he develops the player experience and tools on Libre Galaxy Games, a server he always wished existed.
