Scrapped, President/CEO

Scrapped began coordinating Bar Citizen events in early 2014, securing approval from Michael Morlan that same year to officially use the name “Bar Citizen.” The Austin, Texas group became the first to adopt the name for its local meetups.
 

In 2016, Scrapped helped initiate the effort to launch the official Bar Citizen website (with hosting and development handled by the Base Network/Radio team). That same year, he also worked with Jorunn to establish the Bar Citizen Coordinators and Regional Bar Citizen Discord servers, which continue to serve as the backbone of community organization today.
 

In 2018, he hosted the first-ever Bar CitizenCon Week. Seven consecutive nights of Bar Citizens leading up to CitizenCon and most recently, Scrapped assisted in organizing Bar CitizenCon Week in Manchester in 2025, continuing his long-standing commitment to bringing the Star Citizen community together across the globe.

KitehStrophic, Chief Legal Governance Officer

Kitehstrophic joined Bar Citizen International in 2024, after meeting the team in a bar at CitizenCon in Manchester.

Firmly behind the scenes, Kit looks after the legal governance, risk and compliance aspects of the organisation, bringing over 13 years experience in GRC leadership for multinational organisations, and over 15 years experience in broadcasting, multimedia production, events management, and streaming–which is how she fell into Star Citizen in the first place, then fell in love with the game and the community.

As the only Brit on the BCI Board, Kit proudly represents the non-US contingent by being sleep deprived, drinking vast amounts of tea, and sneaking the proper letters back into US documents. A great advocate for community and global networking, she attends events when able, and will talk to anyone about anything (bonus points for anything related to history and military).
