About me

My passion is to create experiences that make a positive impact on the world through design, illustration, character and storytelling. I try to design with feeling and empathy, and most importantly humour, and I’m fascinated with the power of character as a way to inspire and delight. Currently Creative Director at Kama. Previously Head of Design at Headspace 2011-2018

Animation is such an integral part of the Headspace experience, so along with the new app we created a (rather large!) number of new animations with https://nexusstudios.com/ to support people through their journey. This is just a sampler!
