ME
THANKS FOR VISITING ME HERE.
Welcome to my page. My name is Rosemary Lokhorst. I am a creative geek and writer. I bring impact stories to life for any screen, using technology and gamification to bust stereotypes for a good cause. I like storytelling that uses humor to create characters who are flawed, yet badass. Every day heroes.
I was lured into technology with the promise of regular work hours and meaningful salaries at the age of 19. Since then, I have worked my way up in large companies before joining a startup and helping to bring that to success.
A sabbatical to work on a movie project in Los Angeles inspired me to write a romantic comedy about the modern, empowered woman in technology. In it, my leading lady is a formidable geek and strays away from the clichéd story of the geek wanting the girl to the geek being the girl. Today, women in technology are still a minority and in entertainment often portrayed quite stereotypical.
It fueled my interest in creating stories with a message. Both the gaming and the entertainment industry have enormous potential to bring social messages with entertainment value to a worldwide audience.
That’s why I now use my ‘techspertise’ to produce content I am passionate about, serious content through screenwriting and gaming.
Both in-game and on screen, my stories are about connection, love and laughter using the technologies I have come to love over the course of my career.
If you want to know more about my professional background, feel free to
check out my resume and/or connect on LinkedIn. If you are interested in my personal story, I am happy to talk to you.
