    Greetings Mortals!

    Hi everyone - I probably know quite a few of you already! :D

    I've been in the games industry since around '98, when I began working as a freelance reviewer for several websites. I then co-ran Absolute Playstation for a couple of years.

    In 2003 I started working in games PR, and since then, I have worked in QA, in art/print co-ordination, as PA to the CEOs of TIGA and Beriah (and a brief stint as a producer at Beriah, where I helped to place two external teams with Ubi on Driver: San Fran).

    I have designed and published three iPhone Apps under my own label, have designed two DS games based on CBeebies shows, and have spent the last few years proofreading and editing in-game text, p-mats, and marketing copy for several publishers, both in the UK and overseas.

    I consider myself very fortunate to have been able to make a living from a hobby (been gaming since around '77-ish).... and not have it destroy my love of games!

    Other stuff: big SciFi geek, lover of superheroes, culinary goddess, and digital nomad (working freelance enables me to live all over the world)!

    Looking forward to reconnecting with old chums, and connecting with new ones! \\:D/
