While creating mods and plugins for games as a teenager may have been over a decade ago now, the love of game development never died down. Having my bachelor's degree in game design and my post-graduate within teaching, I now spend my days as a technical designer within a game studio.
I spent over 3 years teaching game design and programming, teaching absolute beginners to now working professionals. I have taught within the UK and in Europe winning awards for my teaching.
Outside of work, I spend my time training for a triathlon, spending time with my family and working on small personal projects.
