Had an amazing time at #GAconf, joining it alongside colleagues from PlayStation Studios & SIE and getting to meet incredibly talented colleagues in other studios and orgs like @momoxmia, @RodrigoSanchez and @TheSlasherChick. Also the biggest gay gasp seeing myself quoted! 😅

A great couple of days at #GAConf. Got to see a lot of faces I hadn't seen in a while, plus some ones I have only ever seen on this platform or similar... And the talks! Some real showstoppers this year. See you at the next one.

Another fantastic #GAConf! It's a privilege to learn from everyone, and to call them friends🖤 If you don't engage with the accessibility community you don't just miss out on knowledge to undoubtedly improve your work, but the most kind, creative and passionate devs out there!

When I read that the @GA_Conf was the best conference in the industry I didn't believe it. Now it's your turn to not believe me, because I also think it is. See you all very soon!

Though I can’t play #PrinceOfPersia #TheLostCrown without constant sighted assistance, I’m glad to see so many enjoying it thanks to the hard work that was put into #accessibility. Great to see the history of the series covered at #GAConf

I'm back from #GAConf safe and sound, but missing everyone and the amazing #accessibility-centric positive atmosphere already. Nothing like in person conversations to get the creative juices flowing. If anyone wants to talk post-conference, feel free to reach out! @GA_Conf
