IGDA | Industry Speaker Daedra Christopher

Daedra Christopher is an educator, author, and AAA game developer who has worked on such blockbuster titles as Halo Infinite, Call of Duty Warzone, and Immortals of Aveum. Prior to her work in the AAA industry, she worked in the indie scene designing for GHERO’s Project and Hitscan’s Solar Purge. A former professor at the University of Texas at Dallas’ Arts and Technology Game Development Program, Daedra taught everything from the advanced level design and game design courses to traditional design.
Being familiar with many aspects of the games pipeline, she mentors multiple students in her free time, helping other young, passionate developers break into the industry. Mrs. Christopher is wrapping up her first non-fiction novel at the behest of her former students and industry colleagues that will focus on helping new developers get a foothold in the competitive industry that is game development. When Daedra isn't working on writing about, or playing games with, her husband and two sons, you can find her curled up with one of her furry tuxedo friends reading a fantasy novel.
