I’m just a regular person that grew up playing video games. My first mainstream system was the Super Nintendo! Before that though I had the Atari 7800, Intellivision, Commodore 64, and many other systems I cannot remember.
I started the Black Retro Gamer Instagram and Facebook page as a way to share my love of gaming from “the good old days.” It’s been really fun to share the hobby I have loved since I was a child. It was also a great way to unwind after work.
In “real life” I was a graphic designer, swing dance instructor, and traveling DJ. Since the pandemic started affecting all of us, let’s just say I have had way too much free time. In order to stave off intense depression I started spending more time with the page starting with streaming some of my favorite old video games. It’s been a wonderful journey so far, learning the ropes of streaming and sharing with all of you.
I am very excited to see where this journey takes us. Please stop by my Facebook page and say hi!
