I've spent 12+ years at Koffee Cup, progressing from one of its first dedicated 3D hires to Partner and CG Director. I led creative and technical delivery for 80+ projects across automotive, luxury, energy, sport, technology and entertainment.

I built and led a 10+ person multidisciplinary department, owning hiring, mentorship, performance management, resourcing and budgets from £50k to £2M. I introduced a Leads structure that enabled teams to operate autonomously while I focused on strategic direction and complex delivery.

I've represented Koffee Cup with clients including Jaguar Land Rover, Burberry, Rolls-Royce, Shell, Cisco, IBM, Adidas and Meta. I direct real-time, interactive and visualisation work across Unreal Engine, Unity and 3D/VFX pipelines, adapting Waterfall, Agile Scrum and Pod delivery models to each project.
