Career highlights
I’ve had a diverse range of experiences, from waiting tables to personal training, before teaching myself motion graphics and animation. I’ve been doing it for 8 years now, and since joining Netizency I’ve had the opportunity to work with more than a few big-name clients, manage a growing team of animators, and take on exciting new challenges. Most of all, the opportunity to see my team and my output come together in campaigns across the world is something I’m always proud of and looking forward to more of.
Guiding principles
Quality. I’m an extremely detail-oriented person in everything I do, and I always strive to make sure that every last keyframe, layer, and transition is on point. It’s the details that the naked eye may not notice that come together to form the perfect end product.
Side hustle
Staring at the wall – I’m exceptionally good at it. It’s also when I’m most inspired. Sometimes I also hug a pillow while doing it, but only when I’m in need of some extra inspiration.
