GAMING
The gaming industry is booming at the moment, with its market valued more than both the music and movie industries combined. With the UAE investing heavily in gaming and becoming an esports leader in the Middle East, I’m proud to be a girl gamer in Dubai.

In the revival of World of Warcraft Classic, I competed in the highest bracket and became the first female High Warlord on my server (translation: top rank in the Player vs Player sector). After organizing and leading so many Player vs Player matches, my friends encouraged me to create my own guild. I was the Guild Master for over a year in The Burning Crusade with a focus on the Player vs Environment dungeons and raids. It was a semi-hardcore guild which ranked amongst the top 95th - 99th percentile of raiders worldwide. I led and managed over 100 guild members and planned out the loot gearing strategy for the entire core raiding roster. This included creating experimental spreadsheet strategies to tackle boss mechanics to continue breaking personal records. And yes, I added all of this information to my LinkedIn because I wasn’t about to let these glorious details go to waste.

Here are some of my stream highlights and mini vlogs about the gaming scene in the UAE:
