Biography

My name is Thomas Ackland. I am a Games Design and Development graduate of the University of Greenwich, with aspirations to succeed as both a Games Designer and a Voice Actor. Always on the look out for new and interesting things, regardless of their relations to games, I have been to a variety of different places and events, most notable of which includes BrownStock Festival, Summer in the City, MCM Expo and the Tokyo Game show just to pick a few. I'm always looking to improve my skills in as many fields as I can, particularly in the programming and art side of things but my main focus is in improving my skills in gameplay and user experience design.
