Kate Willaert originally planned to become a professional comic book artist, but somehow ended up becoming a respected video game historian instead.
During this career detour, she also spent time as a UI/UX designer for a major e-commerce retailer, not only collaborating with the programming department, but also with marketing, where she researched, wrote, and designed a series of superhero and gaming infographics that appeared on AV Club, Buzzfeed, Complex, CNET, Design Taxi, Fandango, Fast Company, Geek Tyrant, Kotaku, Mashable, Nerdist, and The Mary Sue, and was once commissioned by TIME.com.
As a video game historian and Youtuber, she has written for Polygon, Kotaku, and The Beat, has collaborated with the likes of the Video Game History Foundation, The Gaming Historian, and Retronauts, and once gave a private talk for Netflix Animation Studio.
