I first got into anime in 2012, then I began my collecting journey and joining the forums in 2013 before joining the AUKN team since 2016.
I've been to University twice at Sheffield Hallam, studying BSc Computer Science for Games in 2013-2017 and MSc IT Management in 2019-2020, which included the university's Sheffield Hallam Visual Arts / Anime Society and supporting them from 2013-2020.
During the years I managed to get one job which was short-lived and after the pandemic finally secured a position that while not perfect was able to keep the hobby going with more anime, games, films and more for my collection.
Since 2013 I also started The Normanic Vault, a blog where I would talk about anything and showcase various releases of anime or Asian Cinema that was not as commonly shown by others.
Continuing to try and support my hobbies in anime, manga, light novels, video games and Asian Cinema films for as long as I can.
