What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to create impactful visual stories while collaborating with innovative teams.

As a passionate animator and videographer, I have honed my skills in motion design and video editing over the years, working with a variety of clients including Dropbox, HSBC, and The School of Life. My expertise lies in creating engaging 2D animations and corporate styles that resonate with audiences. I thrive in freelance environments, where I can bring creative visions to life through collaboration and innovation.

My journey began as a videographer at Vox Pops International, where I filmed and edited a wide range of videos for notable clients like Unilever and Coca-Cola. This role allowed me to develop a strong foundation in project management, client liaison, and technical skills such as colour grading and audio mixing. I have also had the opportunity to work internationally, which has enriched my perspective and adaptability in various filming environments.

With a degree in Television & Broadcasting from the University of Portsmouth, I am equipped with both the theoretical knowledge and practical experience necessary to excel in the fast-paced world of media production. I am always eager to take on new challenges and contribute to exciting projects that push the boundaries of creativity.
