04 / BIO

I’m a multidisciplinary designer and motion designer based
in Edmonton, Canada, with 20+ years across visual design, brand, motion and digital products. I’ve worked both inside creative teams and with agencies, moving between concept, production and scalable systems.

I bring creative ideas to life through design and motion, from shaping the visual direction to animating and delivering the final piece. My experience includes live events, brand activations and campaigns, where I work closely with creative and production teams to build a consistent experience across screens and formats. I bring ideas to the table, solve problems along the way and stay involved through delivery.
