I am a freelance animator and designer based in Edinburgh, UK. My roots are in 3d animation, gaining a 1st Class Honours degree from the National Centre of Computer Animation, Bournemouth in 2008 and screening animation internationally. My work now stems into areas of design and interactivity. My professional aim is to bring these diverse range of skills together to create engaging promotional material for other businesses. So far I have been involved with the creation of several websites, educational software and flash apps of which you can see examples on this website.

When I'm not working I spend most of my time drawing. I'm also a keen musician playing bass and guitar and help out local bands with their posters, album covers and other artwork. I have an interest in science, maths and new technology. If I had not got myself into the world of computer graphics I would have chosen to study maths. I feel incredibly fortunate that I've found a career which merges both my interest in art and science.
