GEEK PROFILE: MIRANDA BLU

When I was 11 years old an arcade opened down the street from our home. I went one day with a group of friends and I was hooked. I loved everything about it… the lights; the sounds; even that anticipation of waiting for it to finally be my turn. What came next of course was getting my Atari 2600 for Christmas!

My gaming days took a back seat for a while for you know, life stuff, but was re-discovered in 2010 and I’ve been having a blast ever since!
