What I'm looking for

I seek collaborative roles crafting development-ready UI and motion, working with engineering-led teams on product launches and immersive experiences that scale.

I am a highly accomplished Visual/UI/Motion Designer with 20+ years delivering digital design solutions for world-renowned brands across marketing, product and animation sectors.

I design development-ready user interfaces, motion graphics and immersive AR/VR experiences, working closely with engineering teams to ensure pixel-perfect implementation.

My recent roles include product design for Sky's Sirius sales platform, lead UI work for TV sections and animated launch content for Sky Glass, plus contractor roles for Sage, Screwfix and major agencies.

I combine strong commercial acumen with advanced technical skills in Figma, After Effects, Cinema 4D and front-end technologies, and I thrive in collaborative, cross-functional teams focused on client outcomes.
