Education History:

Tat, didn't know a great deal about making media come to life; until he went to Barnsley College to study Creative Media Production. After four years working on his passion (with the guidance of his supportive tutors); he'd managed to pull out two As & a B from the Creative Media Games Development pathway (Level 3).

College taught him that he could learn anything he wanted if he needed to. This meant a lot to Tat, as his high-school grades reflected a definite under-achiever. He decided to take a break from Education after leaving in 2016 and has since been creating his very own media.
