About Me

I’m a motion designer in the UK. I design, storyboard and animate content to help build all kinds of audience relationships — sometimes I write it too. I’ve led the design and execution of animated content for agencies and clients nationwide for brands like the BBC and Barclays. I’ve applied creative and technical skills to bring motion design elements into productions for brands like LEGO. I've worked on branded content, scripted entertainment, marketing and PR campaigns, internal communications, corporate reports, bids, education, and video games. I work in After Effects, Blender, Cinema 4D, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, InDesign, Adobe Animate, Procreate, and Toon Boom Harmony. I’ve on-set experience in live-action television drama and theatrical production. I am experienced in collaborating with directors on fiction and factual projects, directing projects myself, and in client-facing project roles.

A sci-fi adventure comic ready for lift-off

You scrolled down this far, so I will tell you about my webcomic (it’s not too late to scroll back up to my showreel).

To flee a hostile planet, lovers Annie and Jack must outsmart hideous creatures, ominous aircraft, and their egos as they attempt the explosive launch of a DIY starship.

Further Adventures is something I draw and post in my own time. It’s about love and friendship in near-future outer space—I think you’ll enjoy it!
