I am a gaming journalist based in Manchester, England, with a lifelong love of gaming fueled by my experiences with disability since birth. For me, gaming was not an escape, it was my way to engage with the wider world. I might not have been able to kick a ball on the field with my friends, but I could secure our wins in Call of Duty. My taste for gaming grew as I got older, now being deeply experienced with practically every genre and impassionately engaging with the latest in gaming news, industry and culture.
