My name’s Rosalie, your friendly neighbourhood Scottish nerd, and go-to person for writing anything, and everything to do with video games and technology. (And maybe some music work on the side too!)
Most recently, I was the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto. However, currently I’m looking for a new full-time role.
While I’m currently a game and tech journalist, originally I had my sets sight on becoming a composer for video games, which stemmed from a childhood studying the Violin, and admiring the work of composer Nobuo Uematsu. I became a first study vocalist while studying for a music degree at Stevenson College, Edinburgh. During my degree, I won the 2011 Easton Watt Prize for Composing and began ‘Little Record Girl.’
I completed my studies with a second-class upper degree with honours in music at Edinburgh College (formerly Stevenson College) and at Abertay University (Dundee.) While immersed in performance and instrument studies, composition, music theory, and studio work, my passion for writing about games came to fruition.
After graduating, I was able to establish myself as a freelance agent, writing news, op-ed features, and tech tutorials for bylines such as TechRadar, GamerByte and iMore.
This led to my role as a hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, where I wrote daily news pieces, hardware reviews, guides, and tech tutorials. This propelled me to become the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, where I continued to write news, reviews, and guides, while also overseeing the entire team’s evergreen content.
When not looking for a new gig to continue putting my tech and writing expertise into practice, I also talk about everything to do with Nintendo on N-Focus, a Nintendo-based podcast!
