GEORGE DIXON

About Me

I am a Perth based writer and game designer! Growing up, I have always a passion for storytelling in games especially the way they have the power to tell incredible stories in such unique ways.

I completed a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Creative writing in 2022, and immediately began my Bachelors of Game Development right afterwards which I am about to finish. 

I pride myself on my passion and love for the creative process. Brainstorming and ideation, coming up with creative solutions to difficult problems whether they be design related or otherwise I believe to be one of my greatest skills.

In my spare time I love to read, and I am a big fan of speculative genres such as Science Fiction and Fantasy.
