Designer

I‘m a UK-based creative director and technologist with over 15 years of experience delivering innovative solutions in fintech, SaaS, Web3, and events. My skills cover 2D/3D motion graphics, video production, branding, 3D event design, and advanced technologies like AR, VR, and AI-driven tools. I blend creativity with strategic insight to create solutions that align with business objectives and deliver tangible results.

As a leader, I’m dedicated to mentoring teams, drawing on my hands-on approach to guide and inspire. I foster collaborative spaces where ideas flourish, having led award- winning campaigns and optimised creative workflows with AI and automation. This empowers designers and non-designers alike to produce high-quality work efficiently.

With a proven record of building strong teams and crafting bold, business-focused strategies, I excel at tackling complex challenges. From developing design systems to pioneering new technologies, I’m committed to driving impact through creativity, leadership, and innovation.
