Hey there! My name is Alice, I have a degree in Psychology with Counselling and I am currently studying a Masters degree in Health Psychology. Aside from my studies, I’ve always had a love for gaming. But you know what makes it even better? Playing together with a friend like you!
My gaming journey started when I was young, spending countless hours immersed in the worlds of Minecraft and animal crossing, the original Sims, blast racing in Mario Kart on the Nintendo Wii and building theme parks in Roller-coaster Tycoon. More recently, I’ve found a passion for games like Roblox and Minecraft. As well as playing, I like putting my own twist on games and developing my own concepts. You can see something I developed in Roblox Studio in my video.
Whilst I am not fluent in technical coding, my fluency in Italian came in handy developing my own original games on a Psychology placement abroad. As a dog assisted therapist, I often created games centred around connecting my colleagues (a specially trained pack of therapy dogs) to many diverse groups who benefited from these activities. One example was a board game I invented for a school, in which students competed in testing their knowledge about dogs, as well as performing dog tricks against each other with their own designated doggy team captain. The team with fewer ‘doggy doo’ counters or the most ‘scooby snacks’ were the winners! …But if dogs aren’t your thing, we can create new games or adapt these to your style, and then play them together virtually!
Apart from gaming and designing, I have a few other hobbies. I love painting and video editing, but one of my absolute favourite things to do is baking delicious treats for my friends and family. I can thank my hours dedicated to levelling up on ‘Cooking Mamma’ on my Nintendo DS for these skills. I find that baking, creating, and gaming are not just fun but also great outlets for relaxation. I'm eager to hear about your favourite ways to have fun and relax too. Importantly, I am not only here to play games together, but also to listen. So remember that anytime you want to chat, I’m all ears. All we need to do next is connect to the Minecraft server of your choosing.
I’m so excited to meet my player 2!
