About

UK-born and based in New York City, I bring over 24 years of experience in broadcast design and motion graphics. Throughout my career, I’ve led creative teams and built brand identities that are not only visually striking but deeply rooted in storytelling. I believe in the power of clean, bold design to communicate with clarity, evoke emotion, and give brands lasting presence and impact. Whether developing a visual identity or crafting a narrative sequence, my goal is always the same - to tell meaningful stories that resonate and endure.
