About Me
Bridging games, organization, and technical execution.
I'm Anna, a Unity developer and Game Technology student at KAMK. My path here started at 13, when I decided I'd move to Finland and make games — that took me through design work, QA testing at SAB Games, and now building with Unity and C#.
I care about the technical foundation as much as the player experience. Whether I'm prototyping a 3D ship-in-a-bottle survival game in Unity, shipping a React study planner, or running a QA pass, the goal is the same: make something solid that is genuinely fun to use.
Outside coursework, I volunteer at Slush, join Base44 and Assembly game jams, and mentor through Technovation. My long-term goal is to become a technical producer and found my own game company here in Finland.
