I'm currently 27 years old and, like most of you, I've been playing games for almost my entire life. Currently, I'm an instructor at the University of Amsterdam which takes up most of my time. Still, I try to spend most of my free time on game related stuff.
I recently launched a blog that keeps track of the progress of my current research on YouTube. Feel free to check it out:
