Hello and welcome to my about.me page.
I am passionate about gaming, hedgehogs and gaming! You will usually find me at events and networking online to raise awareness for the Hedgehog oriented animal rescue that I currently work with. Save our Hedgehogs is a rescue and rehabilitation centre for native hedgehogs based in Wellingborough that covers Northamptonshire and some surrounding areas.
I am also the co-founder of a proto-Games studio called Prickly Productions. We are currently developing games for mobile devices and the online marketplace and have recently launched our first title, a text based adventure game for PC users, which was well received. I am very proud of the achievements that Prickly Productions have made to date and look forward to continuing to develop it further as an indie games studio whilst I complete my university degree.
I have a strong interest in people development and training, especially when part of a team that strives to bring out the best of peoples abilities. I experienced this first hand during my time working for Friends Provident international, where I managed a small team, worked on various projects and was responsible for delivering various training activities to other staff members. I love to help others realise their potential, knowing that in doing so, I will also realise my own.
I try to have a positive impact on everything and everyone I engage. Thanks for stopping by.
