What I'm looking for

I'm a graphic designer with a unique edge. I design brand identities, broadcast graphics, and marketing collateral while also directing live productions and keeping studio pipelines running smoothly. I bring creative vision and technical reliability to every project.

I’ve spent eight years working at the intersection of design, robotics, broadcast, and video production—creating visuals, operating advanced systems, directing live productions, and producing video content.

At Nectar Studios, I’ve cycled through multiple roles: Graphic Designer and Office Supervisor, then Technical Director and Studio Manager. I oversee technical pipelines for streamed shows, supervise graphics production, and keep live and recorded content executing flawlessly.

On the motion-control side, I’m the go-to operator and fixer for Cinebot motion-control rigs, laser FX projectors, and studio automation systems. I program repeatable camera moves, map laser patterns for live commercials, and troubleshoot servo failures mid-shoot to protect production schedules.

Before that, I ran Master Control Room operations at Advocate Broadcasting Network (ADBN), triggering live programs for DTT and DSAT while monitoring playouts (video, audio descriptions, subtitles). I’ve also led rebrands and built brand identities for Wanneka Luxury Hair and music clients through freelance design work.
