Meet Kaosi Unini

Kaosi Unini is a brilliant multi-hyphenate talent who is charting a unique path as an up-and-coming writer, game producer, and researcher.

Born in the United States to first-generation Nigerian parents, Kaosi explores the nuanced layers of navigating the diaspora through the lenses of both literary fiction and interactive media. Currently refining his craft under the mentorship of acclaimed author Miroslav Penkov at UNT, Kaosi bridges the gap between traditional storytelling and the modern frontier of video game design.

His work goes deeper than just crafting compelling narratives. Kaosi takes us behind the scenes of the gaming industry, sharing his groundbreaking research on "work tribe theory" and knowledge management. He breaks down how corporate layoffs strip away institutional memory, leaving human costs that standard onboarding can never repair. From winning the Excellence in Game Writing award for his debut game "Launch Day" to reading for the American Literary Review, Kaosi shares how quality, coherence, and systems shape his vision for the future.
