Profile

Creative and open-minded motion designer with over a decade of experience turning ideas into visuals that move, both literally and emotionally. My work spans motion graphics, animation, storyboarding, character animation, and 3D visualisation, often blending disciplines to craft stories that resonate. With a background in film production, post-production, and brand development, I bridge creativity and strategy to deliver bold, thoughtful visuals. I'm always exploring new tools, including AI-assisted design, to elevate the craft and keep the work fresh.
