Leeds Trinity UniversityEnglish and Creative Writing BA (Hons)I aspire to eventually get some writing published, but in the meantime I would love to work in a bookstore (or library) and write on the side. I struggled a lot during my earlier school years but have been thriving at Leeds Trinity University in comparison! Allysa
University of HertfordshireAnimation, film, games and creative mediaHi, I’m Allysa — a games student working towards becoming a games technical designer and artist. I’ve always been drawn to games, but I started with fine art and media production to build a strong creative foundation. Fine art sharpened my eye for detail and composition, while media production taught me how to tell stories across digital platforms. These experiences now fuel my approach to game design, where I combine artistic vision with technical problem-solving. If you’re curious about creative pathways into games or want to chat about finding your niche, I’m happy to help! Chloe

However, I'm still discovering my options. I live in the University Mountain Halls and I love to read any books that interest me such as Percy Jackson, The Hunger Games and more. I love movies such as Ghostbusters, The Conjuring Movies and others that interest me. Anything I can do to help just give me a text. I'm here to help you with whatever questions or queries you have.
