Hi, I'm Cat! I am a technical game designer who has graduated from a Games Technology BSc (Hons) degree!
Previously, I was a Grads in Games Ambassador - helping provide career resources to my university. I also helped run a games support society for my university!
Currently I am a volunteer for Cats Protection Guildford and Godalming Branch, as a website editor.
I love animals!
I am very passionate about nature, our planet and animals, and try to reflect these in the games I make. I believe that games have the ability to educate players about important topics, such as wildlife conservation.
