I'm certain we all wear multpile hats as creatives. These are some of the hats I enjoy wearing, and some I look forward to growing into.
Illustration is my passion, older Disney script writers would say "My One True Love". Being an illustrator allows me to bring vivid and imaginative worlds to life through a more artistic lense. I relish the opportunity to communicate ideas, emotions, and stories with a unique visual language, whether it's in the form of intricate character designs, enchanting landscapes, or whimsical concepts.
Graphic design, a mere profession to most; but to me it's a canvas for communication. The challenge of combining typography, color, and imagery to convey messages effectively, hardly ever requires a "one-size" approach, which keeps things exciting. My goal is to create designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also resonate with the audience on a profound level, or are just fun to engage in at time.
Motion design is the dynamic heartbeat of my creative journey. I am fascinated by the ability to breathe life into static elements, transforming them into captivating animations and visual experiences. Whether it's a sleek logo reveal or a mesmerizing video, I relish the opportunity to engage and enthrall through motion.
Branding as a means of sculpting an identity and forging connections is quite intriguing for me. I view brands as living entities with distinct personalities, and I enjoy the challenge of shaping their visual and emotional narrative. Being part of crafting compelling brand strategies and design systems is a fascinating aspect of design that I enjoy being a part of.
Art direction is an avenue for crafting captivating visual stories that I'm eager to delve more into. Embracing the responsibility of curating aesthetics, directing photography or video shoots, and ensuring that every frame is a masterpiece in its own right. It's about harmonizing elements to create memorable and visually stunning narratives.
