About

I’m a motion and visual designer based in New York, creating 2D/3D motion graphics and digital brand systems for product communication and marketing. My work spans motion design, branded assets, and modular templates that streamline large-scale content production.

My work includes leading the visual direction for the Nintendo Switch title Aliisha: The Oblivion of Twin Goddesses, as well as motion and visual design across commercial campaigns and branded content connected to the NBA, Amazon, NYC public-sector projects, and large-scale industry events.
