Hi, I'm an Australian motion designer and post-production generalist (currently based in the EU) specialising in short-form campaign content, explainer-style animation, social video, and supporting teams that need reliable outputs with tight turnarounds. I’m comfortable stepping into existing workflows, matching styles or developing new looks alligned to brand guidlines, and delivering polished, campaign-ready content across a range of platforms. With over 16+ years of experience across TVCs, branded content, corporate video, and digital campaigns, I started my career as an editor, working extensively across TVC broadcast and commercial projects, developing a strong foundation in storytelling, pacing, and delivery. Through this time, I was creating graphics and animation to support my edits, which became a passion and the primary focus of my work. As a result, I bring a hybrid skillset across editing, motion, and design, with both a creative and technical perspective, as well as giving me an adaptable and capable ability to maneuver to different styles as needed to provide what is best for a projects outcome. I’m passionate about working in this space and enjoy staying up to date with current design trends, evolving styles, and emerging tools, including incorporating AI tools to my work flow when required for image and video generation or enhancement, if it adds value to the creative process. I’m currently based in Budapest and available for remote freelance or short-term contract work over the next 7-9 months. I’m fully set up for remote collaboration and can align with international times when required.
