Thank you so much to Charu Desodt (NHEHS 1994) who came into school to talk to the Sixth Form as part of our Careers Spotlight series.

After leaving NHEHS, Charu read Maths and Psychology at Royal Holloway followed by a Masters degree in Engineering at Cranfield. She started in console gaming as an engineer at Sony PlayStation by creating the technology behind the hugely successful SingStar franchise which won a BAFTA in 2005 for originality. She was the first female engineer hired by Sony’s London Studio and has since gone on to win a Breakthrough Brit in 2014 and has been named in MCV’s Top 100 Women in Games. She is currently Studio Director for independent games studio, INTERIOR/NIGHT.
