It goes without saying, I love games.
I'm an enthusiastic and driven Educator, Community Organiser and Digital Creative who loves working on projects that engage communities who might otherwise never experience the joy of games development.
I have designed curricula for Level 2 and Level 3 courses in Games Art and Technology and have taught at FE level for over 4 years. I love creating 3D artwork and participating in game jams alongside my work advocating for the Norfolk Digital Creative and 'Crea-tech' sectors.
Please feel free to reach out via LinkedIn or Twitter if you would like to know more about the Norfolk Games community or my digital creative work.

Kieran Darwin, Senior Agency Partner - Global Solutions at Yahoo
“Having worked with Robin on several projects at Women in Games, I've seen first hand how good she is at organising large events both in person & virtually.
She's great at working with multiple stake holders both internally & externally to produce events that are at the top of their game.
I would not hesitate to recommend & hope we can work together on many more projects.”
