I am a highly passionate Senior Motion Graphic Designer and Video/Film Editor with 15 years of professional experience. I thrive on transforming ideas into dynamic visuals, with a strong background in graphic design, storytelling, the Adobe Creative Suite, asset creation, and illustration. I enjoy collaborating across teams to craft clear, compelling visuals that communicate brand stories effectively. Since going freelance in 2012 I have built a loyal client base and a vibrant network, delivering scalable graphics, TV series identities (notably for How Do Animals Do That), and award-winning visual effects. I also built a scalable e-commerce platform for motion graphics assets and continue to lead as a senior creative with Flayr FX. My aim is to keep pushing creative boundaries while delivering tangible results for brands and productions.
