Selected work

Five disciplines, equal billing. Open any one for the full gallery.

Motion Graphics | Video

Motion Design

Problem. A product has fifteen seconds to explain itself inside a crowded feed.

Solution. Trailers and in-app motion built on After Effects; engagement on Gamelearn titles rose 20%.

Applied to Design

Illustration

Problem. Stock imagery flattens the ideas it is meant to carry.

Solution. Original illustration made for the layout it lives in, for digital and print alike.

Branding | Events

Graphic Design

Problem. Software companies and venues outgrow identities that no longer match what they sell.

Solution. Full identity work applied across web, video, stands and print — a GOALSYSTEMS rebrand lifted web traffic 30% and brand recognition 15%.

Original Characters

Character Design

Problem. Marketing assets looked generic next to the games they promoted.

Solution. Original characters and environments, reused across campaigns, trailers and store pages.

Sequential | Comic

Ongoing Stories

Problem. A long-form story to keep the drawing hand and the narrative eye sharp.

Solution. Written, illustrated and lettered in-house — characters, pages and covers, built panel by panel.
