I'm a multimedia designer, producer and content creator living in Los Angeles.
I seize any opportunity to craft a delightful experience or tell a compelling story. I love the thrill of making, and exploring new mediums, from big picture concept ideation to the practical concerns of UX or fabrication.

Skilled at collaborating with diverse teams of designers, developers, architects, filmmakers, fabricators and clients, I believe in designing a kick-ass process as well as an awesome end product. Thus, I also work with companies to tweak internal systems for greater collaboration and creativity.
ABOUT

To turn a rough idea into a real-life experience, sometimes I’m a maker. That means I come up with concepts, develop the strategy, copy and graphics, or direct actors to meet my creative vision. Other times, I’m a manager with a deep respect for collaboration and craftsmanship. I define success upfront, and lead with organization and clarity.

I’m currently freelancing, and have worked at FieldKit, STP, Gallagher, Local Projects, Dome, and Webstars. My experience includes 15+ years working on projects for film, animation, websites, mobile apps, interactive software, physical computing, fabrication and experiences.

I received my Diploma in Foundation Studies Art and Design from the University of Arts London (Distinction), BA with honors in Art History from the University of York (1st Class), and graduated from Shillington College of Graphic Design in NYC.
