Throw yourself out there and make those awkward initial chats. It's so worth it in the long run. 🥰

It's tricky - but once you overcome the hurdle, you see more and more people you recognise every year. Your peers become connections and those connections become your friends - and soon it all seems a little less scary and inaccessible.

But one thing I will say is - it can be overwhelming to come to these things and feel like you don't know anyone.

My first Develop I knew maybe 4 people there and I awkwardly wandered around looking for people to latch onto. This was like a decade ago and I still sometimes feel a little lost.

I'm doing some really fun things at DDA, and had some great chats about how we can support creating outstanding and impactful campaigns. With over 50 years’ experience in the entertainment space – we’re ready to help you on your journey.

Drop me a DM, I’d love to chat! 💬

✨ I had such a lovely time at Develop in Brighton this year! ✨

It was incredibly exciting to see so many creatives forging their own pathways – building games, studios, and ideas from scratch. I’m hopeful and eagerly awaiting the magic and creative energy that comes as a result. ❤️

I was on a panel as part of @sxsw.com!

Had a lovely day discussing the evolution of video games multimedia with a panel of experienced professionals in the space.

I talk about it more on LinkedIn but I’m eagerly excited to see how many more games IPs and narratives are explored! ❤️
