Hi! I'm Katri Korte-McGrath and I'm based in Dublin, Ireland. I focus on game design and production, but I am highly adaptable from my experience working on student projects.
I find myself leading teams, both in professional projects and in my previous retail jobs. Learning new things is my favourite thing about game development, and I always strive to improve my skills! I was extremely fortunate to land two roles at Larian Studios, where I had an amazing time working in a team to solve problems. I always aim to see the bigger picture on projects, looking at scope and thinking about player experience.
My favourite games of all time include Firewatch by Campo Santo, The Last of Us Part II by Naughty Dog, and Omori by Omocat. All of these games inspired me to create, with The Last of Us Part II being the reason I chose to study game design in 2020. I dream to inspire people and have my games effect people in the same way these games have affected me. Currently I'm obsessed with Riot Games' Valorant, as I am determined to rise through the ranks and improve, and Double Fine's Pyschonauts, loving the creativity and amazing use of space. There is no game genre I won't play, as I believe video games are a form of art.
