About
I am a lead motion designer and CGI generalist with over seven years of experience in character animation, motion graphics, and visual storytelling. With a proven track record of self-sacrifice, fearlessness in facing challenges, I have led small teams and delivered high-impact visual content for major financial institutions and government foundations, including the Development Bank of Rwanda and Sanlam Allianz.
Beyond my visual work, I am a music producer—a hobby that directly informs my professional practice. I believe that combining sound with vision is the most effective way to communicate clearly. My understanding of rhythm and auditory storytelling allows me to synchronize motion with sound seamlessly, creating more impactful messages.
