About

I live in the East Midlands (UK), where I work in resilience exercising for a Category 1 responder. My day job involves testing and exercising for assorted flavours of emergency and major incident, both internally and liaising with partner agencies on tabletop and live exercises which might be a train derailment one week, and a cyber attack the next. 

Prior to this I was an emergency planning officer in a response role, involved in incidents ranging from apartment block fires and floods, to fuel shortages and pandemics. Other career experience includes marketing and events for different sectors (publishing, higher education, cultural), and parliamentary office experience.

My own introduction to gaming came from receiving a Warhammer 40,000* boxed set one Christmas from my grandfather, and I've not looked back since then. 

Because of this love of creating games, coupled with my day job, I have been described as "50% doomsday prepper & 50% doomsday designer."
