Available to hire
I’m a visual creative with two decades of experience working across illustration and animation as an Art and Creative Director. My journey started with drawing at a young age, and after graduating in Graphic Design, I built a career delivering tailored visual solutions for every project I touch.
Since 2018 I’ve expanded deeply into animation—moving fluidly between hands-on illustration and creative leadership. I either create solo from a sketchbook or lead teams of artists, designers, and illustrators to bring a project’s vision to life.
