About me

I am a multidisciplinary digital designer specialized in Motion Design, and have been working as a freelancer for about 4 years. I love creating Explainer Videos,Character & Cel Animations and am always exploring new technologies to integrate into projects.

I work from the initial script and storyboard and then transform these into motion products that connect with audiences. I am a versatile designer with range from the simple and elegant style to visual dense feasts of color.
I worked with a range of clients focusing on the most ideal visual solutions for brands such as Microsoft, Netflix, Sega, Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon.

I create visual experiences that merge creative strategy, Motion & Graphic design to engage and amaze audiences.
