News Writer, TechRadar Gaming

Catherine is a News Writer for TechRadar Gaming. Armed with a journalism degree from The University of Sheffield, she was sucked into the games media industry after spending far too much time on her university newspaper writing about Pokémon and cool indie games, and realising that was a very cool job, actually. She previously spent 19 months working at GAMINGbible as a full-time journalist.


When it comes to video games, Catherine has an eternal love for all things Nintendo - especially Pokémon (Bulbasaur is her favourite) and Xenoblade Chronicles. During her time as a games journalist, she’s interviewed the original voice of Ash Ketchum, Veronica Taylor, and reviewed loads of great games, including Xenoblade Chronicles 3. She will never stop talking about Xenoblade Chronicles. Ever.
