## About

```text
I build interactive UI motion, vector animations, and visual storytelling for digital platforms and technology-driven products.

At Sircles, I directed UI motion for the mobile app and produced more than 500 interactive motion assets for iOS and Android, improving navigation and visual feedback. I also designed the company website and motion assets for app store listings.

As a freelance interactive motion designer, I create responsive micro-interactions, Lottie JSON animations, interactive state machines, and Framer components for web and mobile teams. I use React, JavaScript, and After Effects scripting to automate Lottie workflows and reduce production time.

My background also includes data-driven motion graphics at One Oak Global Kenya and clear educational diagrams and corporate design materials at Tech Hub Dynamics. I’m certified by LottieFiles in Figma to Lottie, After Effects to Lottie, and Lottie.
