I tell stories and make things people actually stop for.

Creative Director who sets visual direction and builds the systems teams run on, across motion, video and brand. I started out founding and running my own creative studio, and most recently led a 15-person team across three live products at Wondershare.

Deep in After Effects and Figma, and building AI into real production since 2022, as a tool for better work, not a gimmick. Off the clock I make gaming videos with my sons.
