Regarded as a 'factory of ideas' by many, I’m a fast-thinking visual storyteller with a creative imagination and a solid understanding of story, art, direction and design. With experience working in extremely fast-paced environments and consistently developing new and unorthodox ideas, I craft stories that leave lasting impressions. I've developed commercials for Amazon, crafted stories for Cartier, designed stages for David Guetta, storyboarded for Matthew Vaughn, designed characters for Apple Arcade and sketched ideas for Norman Foster. Speed is now second nature, and immense pressure has become the normality. I think conceptually, crafting narratives that leave lasting impressions - taking ideas, creating unique stories and seeing them through to completion.
