I’m a Associate Game Director currently working at video games company Firesprite in Liverpool. I have over 7 years of experience in the games industry and I am always looking to develop myself further.
During my time, I have worked extensively on creating experiences that combine key gameplay mechanics and core narrative beats. I believe that how a player experiences the game world is crucial to their enjoyment of it, the ‘little things’ can take them to a whole new level of enjoyment if they’re built upon solid mechanics and an immersive world.
When I don’t have a controller/Wacom pen/pencil/mouse in my hands, I enjoy playing board games, playing football, exploring, and watching films.
My favourite games include The Witcher 3, The Last of Us and the Mass Effect series.
