About Me:
Hi, I'm Theo, I am a highly experienced video games QA tester and indie developer & 3D artist. I have 10 years experience in the games industry (currently in the Publishing QA team at CI Games), plus Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Games Design and several self-published indie titles. I have a passion for all things gaming and tech - alongside my 10 years of professional games industry experience, I have also self-published several indie titles to Xbox, PC and mobile, and have been creating 3D models for indie projects on Sketchfab and Fab.com for several years. I am experienced in industry-standard software & skills such as Unity & Unreal game engines, Maya, Substance, Photoshop, C# coding, Unreal Blueprints and much more. I am always striving to immerse myself in the art and business of video games; developing my skills through personal game dev projects, making 3d environments and models, attending games industry events and meetups, and researching all manner of game-related topics from design to art to VR and beyond. I have participated in 30+ game jams and host my own game jams too. I was also honoured to be included in MCV/Develop's 30 Under 30 list for 2023.
