I am currently going to school for Journalism and hope to eventually work full-time in the game industry writing articles or working in public relations. I love all types of games although shooters and RPGs are my favorite. My gaming platform of choice is the Xbox One/Xbox 360 but I have been known to play games on computers or PlayStation occasionally. I am always interested in hearing feedback or meeting new people. You can find me on Twitter at thunderbunny4 or try my Xbox gamertag which is also Thunderbunny4.
