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.

Previously, I led the visual direction for the Nintendo Switch title Aliisha, which was internationally recognized for its design and art direction.

Tools: After Effects, Cinema 4D, Redshift, Illustrator
