I met Catherine during one of our Industry meetings in London where we shared our passion for gaming and for an industry that truly gets involved in topics that matter to our society. When she heard I was transferring to San Francisco she suggested I join this great initiative: swimming from Alcatraz during GDC (the Game Developers Conference) to raise money for a good cause.

It'll be the first time I do the swim, and it’s going to be much more of a challenge than the warm and clear Mediterranean sea around Corsica that I am used to! But I already mastered the streets of San Francisco with some half marathons so I am ready to master the Bay ;-) Training starts on Jan 1^st in the pool & around The Cove of San Francisco as much as possible.
