I build brand systems, motion creative, and AI production workflows for B2B technology companies.
What I'm looking for
At Huntress, I owned end-to-end visual production for a cybersecurity brand that scaled from 200 to 1,000+ employees, spanning ads, social, email, video, web, print, and brand systems. I also built generative AI workflows that reduced repeated production tasks from 60+ minutes to under two minutes.
I've created animated cybersecurity training at Curricula and illustrated children's books, comics, and concept art for independent clients. I combine illustration, motion design, and AI development, including deploying ABV WTR, a live AI news briefing agent built with Node.js, Express, Claude API, and Railway.
