I lecture in Game Design at Abertay where I’m currently responsible for delivery of game design material across 4 modules to students in years 2 to 4.
I am currently in my final year of a part-time postgraduate Masters by Research degree focused on Engagement and Retention within the mobile games sector. My research interests include player behaviour in and around games, disruptive gameplay and game development process.
Prior to joining Abertay, I had 17 years commercial games industry experience, having released 16 commercially available video games, and designing games for the likes of Square Enix, Konami, Sega, Microsoft, Sony, Activision, Zynga and more.
