Video Game and Storytelling Psychologist<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

Hi! I am a bilingual psychologist who has been researching the way different variables affect how people experience both video games and stories for more than a decade. This allowed me to write articles for entertainment and trade publications, collaborate with researchers from different countries and fields, and present my work at international conferences. Recently, I have started providing an evidence-based consultation service for game and narrative designers, and I am trying to start a career as a storyteller. Wish me luck!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
