I turn complex products and ideas into video people actually want to watch.
With 14+ years in video production, animation, and motion graphics, I’ve led the full creative lifecycle for global brands: concept, scripting, storyboarding, animation, and post-production. Over the years that has meant 500+ brand-compliant video and design assets, from marketing and product videos to explainers, how-tos, and training content.
I’m also actively bringing AI into the creative process. I’ve integrated tools like Runway, Higgsfield, and Firefly into our production workflow, which improved output accuracy and cut down manual effort, while keeping craft and brand consistency front and center.
What I bring to the table:
• End-to-end video production, both live-action and animated (2D and 3D)
• Storyboarding, and visual storytelling
• Team leadership: I’ve mentored 30+ designers and editors
• On-camera hosting for product demos, walkthroughs, and educational videos
• Brand alignment and stakeholder management across campaigns
Tools of the trade: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, Blender, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Figma.
I’m always happy to connect with fellow creators, content leaders, and teams looking to make video-first content that drives results. Feel free to reach out.
