What I'm looking for

I seek creative leadership roles where I can direct motion and multimedia projects, mentor teams, collaborate with clients, and deliver high-quality visual storytelling.

I am an experienced and motivated Art Director with over a decade in motion graphics, video editing, and multimedia design, skilled at interpreting complex client briefs and translating them into finished projects. I have led teams, created mood boards and storyboards, and managed projects across TV, events, digital museums, and advertising.

My background includes founding VisualJackPT, leading motion design teams for agencies and broadcasters, and developing product and production pipelines for a digital learning startup. I combine strong communication, time management, and collaborative leadership to deliver creative, client-focused outcomes.
