Theresa Skirl
Hi, my name is Theresa! I’m a Game Producer from Berlin, Germany.
I believe that great projects are created by passionate people. As Producer, I create efficient and welcoming environments to help my team members become the very best versions of themselves.
Currently, I’m studying towards my degree in Game Production and Management (B.A). Right now I’m an Intern in Political Affairs at game – The German Games Industry Association. I assist in hosting and organizing gamescom, the biggest trade fair for video games in the world. Previously I worked as a tutor for Game Art and Design and was solely in charge of organizing our biannual Games Kickstart, showcasing semester projects from my degree.
Before enrolling, I worked in TV and film as an assistant director, creating short-films for the german public service broadcasting. I have a degree as a Technical Design Assistant with a focus on Media and Communication.
I used to volunteer for anyway e.V. in Cologne, organizing and hosting workshops educating teenagers and teachers on anti-discrimination and LGBT+ rights. With previous experience in theatre, I used to host my own amateur improv group for three whole years.
I also love Gamejams, so check out my projects or stay in touch. :)
