LONG BIO

I love making games
​

I'm a game design graduate from Breda University of Applied Sciences, in the Netherlands. I'm originally from the UK but I moved there to follow my life goal of developing games.

The course is one of the best in the world, and was recently rated the second best in Europe for game design.

At BUAS I developed games in an industry simulation, working on an array of different projects, some with external clients and many more just to test our skills.

I've developed in multidisciplinary teams alongside programmers and artists to create several unique games and prototypes, all of which had their own unique charms and selling points.

I am a committed team member and give my all to any projects that I work on. I take pride in keeping my teammates
calm and motivated throughout development with my designs and my personality.

I have a breadth of gaming experience, with over 1000 hours in Civilization 5, Hundreds in the Fight Night series, Days spent in MMOs, FPS Games, Strategy Games, City Builders, Low Budget and Triple A.

Every game is fun at it's core, and that's something I love to capture when I develop games
