As a motion graphics designer and art director, I help companies and organisations connect with their audiences and grow their businesses. I collaborate directly with clients or in a supporting role for agencies and studios from around the world.
Based in Redhill, Surrey, I work from my home studio (not just from the kitchen table) and am just a short 35-minute train ride from London for on-site work.
With 20+ years of experience in design and advertising, I began my career in print and production after studying typographic design, working at agencies of all sizes. As the industry evolved and shifted toward digital design, I adapted my skills with a focus on motion graphics and never looked back – I absolutely love what I do!
I’m skilled in Adobe After Effects and Maxon Cinema 4D with Redshift and X-Particles, along with extensive experience using the full Adobe Creative Cloud suite, including Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with a number of high-profile brands, including Nike, Microsoft, MasterCard, Cisco, Vauxhall, EasyJet, Subway, and Xbox.
If you're looking to elevate your brand with impactful motion graphics and design, let’s connect and explore how I can help bring your project to life.
