ANYTHING MORE YOU 
WOULD LIKE TO KNOW?

I'm a versitile UX/UI designer, media producer and front-end website developer, having moved to the valleys of South Wales a few years ago following four years based in Sydney, Australia, where I was managing, designing and developing for a large online wine retail website, producing digital content and campaigns to support the business and it's marketing activities.

I have a diverse skillset, including website design and development, graphics, media production, and user engagement. I also have extensive experience in Video creation, 3d modelling and animation, html email design plus much, much more  ...   

I’d say, my biggest asset is a desire to constantly increase my knowledge base, I’m more often than not found learning new software or skills . It does drive my partner a little mad when she finds me watching some random video about maths for VFX artists at midnight. I simply like to find new ways to engage people through content.

Such is life when you have a busy job and 2 small kids ... you have to find time for yourself when you can, and for me, discovering a cool new design or code trick or working out a new 3D renderer, is when I’m happiest, weird I know!
