Systems Owned: 3DO, Atari 2600, Dreamcast, Genesis, NES, SNES, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, GBA SP, Nintendo DS, Nintendo DS Lite, PC, PS2, PSP, PS3, Xbox, Xbox360, Wii
Favorite games/genre: I have way too many favorites. The Witcher, Rock Band, Indigo Prophecy, Guitar Hero, EverQuest, Crazy Taxi, Soul Calibur, Record of Lodoss War, Shining Force III, Still Life, The Sims and RCT series... Favorite genres are puzzles, RPGs, action/RPGs and micromanagement, though I'll pretty much play anything as long as the story and gameplay interest me.
Bio: GrrlGamer was my big chance to combine two things I love, games and writing. I've stuck with it ever since and don't regret it one bit. It's very rewarding to see the site as it is now. I love everything I do regarding Grrlgamer, from playing games to writing reviews, recruit writers, PR, and of course, taking care of SimGrrl. The busier I am, the happier I feel! Other than that, I am a Portuguese interpreter/translator and enjoy knitting, baking, spending time with my husband and cats.

Favorite games/genre: Strategy sim and logic games, MMORPGs, and on occasion the over-the-top fighter arcade games. I also like silly little puzzle games that drive most people nuts, especially to pass the time on my work commute into downtown Chicago.
Bio: I'm a Web designer, programmer, etc. you name it. I love creating Web sites especially for small companies launching their first very own Web site. So for GrrlGamer I have the same approach - though it's my own design and I don't have to approve it with clients! I've been with GrrlGamer since around 1998 and helped redesign the site in 2002. I freelance as a Web designer, Blue Agate, to pay the bills and game subscriptions. Aside from playing video games, I also enjoy cooking, shopping, and spending quality time with the husband, dog, and my new baby boy-gamer!

Favorite games/genre: RPG almost exclusively but also like Action/Adventure,
FPS & simulation games like Sim City and The Sims.
Bio: I started GrrlGamer.com in 1996 as a column on my first website
RiotGrrl.com. The column, where I could review games from
the female point of view, was the first of its kind anywhere and the first
indicator on the Internet that gamers did indeed include women & girls. The
column became GrrlGamer.com, the very first website about
computer and video gaming for women, that was also written and produced solely by women.
Now 10 years later, GrrlGamer has helped shape
the computer and video games industry by continuing to support, nurture and
celebrate the fabulous female gamer! For me personally, GrrlGamer is
strictly a labor of love that I share with my gamer sisters Minna & Didi.
Everything that this site is today I owe to them and their persistence of
vision that has kept us going even through the most difficult times. I may
have birthed this baby grrl, but they have raised her! I'm in my
mid-thirties now, a place I never thought I would be AND still be writing
about and playing games - but this is my generations truest art form and I
plan on being a part of it until they call me GrannyGrrl!

Favorite games/genre: My number one choice is Japanese RPGs, 99% of what I buy falls into this category. However, I do like to kick back with a bit of Mario Kart, platform games like Sonic, or puzzle up with Tetris. I find myself very amused with Wii Sports as well. I can't choose just one favorite game, since there are many that I love.
