About me
My name is Maggie and I came to the UK in 2016 to study Games Technology from a tiny village in Poland. A lot has changed since that time, my passion for making games only grew and took me here!
In my free time
In my free time, I enjoy baking and running tabletop and virtual RPG Games. I have a great passion in designing stories for players to explore, crafting props, environments, characters and exploring different ways of interactive storytelling. I ran many small projects on the internet that focused on that exact thing.
Helping out
Outside of that I take part in many events such as Develop or WASD, give talks about finding a job in the industry and do portfolio reviews. I like helping others making their way into the games’ industry, mainly because back in the day I was in the same position.
