Game Design

Hello, I'm Heather, a game designer deeply passionate about crafting immersive gaming experiences that not only challenge the status quo but also inspire meaningful change. My love for game design springs from a longstanding admiration for strategy and competitive play, extending from the tactile joy of board games to the intricate strategies of digital arenas like League of Legends. 

Initially, my work focused on creating serene mini-games, born from a belief in the power of games to spread joy. Over time, however, my perspective has shifted. I now see games as a powerful conduit for voicing ideas and mirroring societal phenomena, a theme that resonates throughout my projects. I hope that these games not only entertain but also enlighten players by providing deeper insights into various topics.

At the heart of my design philosophy is the desire to utilize the interactive essence of games as a means to illuminate and stimulate dialogue on pivotal global issues. As I evolve in my design journey, I aspire to leverage the transformative potential of gaming to inform, captivate, and motivate action among a global audience. I am keen to forge connections with industry peers and fellow gaming aficionados who are also committed to creating games that carry profound significance.
