Joon Yoon

Hi, I'm Joon. I work at the intersection of gaming, data science, analytics, and product with a focus on user analytics, live ops, monetization, and game economy. At Gamers Lab, I lead data strategy for a gameplay analytics platform integrated with multiple game studios, building analytics infrastructure, developer tooling, and player intelligence. At Uprising Labs, I support game studios across economy design, monetization, live ops, and growth, having worked with 10+ titles. Previously, I led monetization, economy design, data analytics, and live ops at The Sandbox (web3 gaming), Pixelberry Studios (a Nexon studio), and Reach (web3). Before transitioning into gaming, I worked in AI/ML and consumer analytics, specializing in customer lifetime value (LTV/CLV), predictive modeling, and data-driven personalization.

​​

With a background in corporate finance, entrepreneurship & innovation, VC, and industrial economics, my academic pursuits have complemented my professional journey. My dissertation focused on the mobile app market, using economic theories and empirical methods to answer interesting questions in the fields.

Feel free to explore more about my experiences through the tabs above. I'm always open to connecting and discussing opportunities in web3, gaming, and data science.

​​

I'm based in Los Angeles, California. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, traveling, cooking, and playing PC/mobile games, soccer, golf, and poker.
