I’m a formally trained graphic designer with a passion for storytelling and film.
I graduated from Newham College of Art & Design in London and worked as a Lead Design Director for the BBC’s world-renowned Graphics division for 13 years. I’m honored to have earned 21 international awards and nominations including an Emmy Award in 2009 for Sports Nation and a 2004 BAFTA nomination for the Olympics opening titles.
In 2007 I moved to Los Angeles to expand my career in film and commercials. I joined Kyle Cooper’s Prologue Films as Creative Director where I was fortunate to work on some great projects including Iron Man 2, Battleship and G.I. JOE Retaliation and picked up an Emmy and three Emmy nominations in 2010 and 2011.
I’ve been leading VFX design teams for the past two decades. I currently spearhead The Mill’s content and design arm: Mill+. I serve as the exclusive Creative Director producing integrated design production and content development initiatives for the Los Angeles office. I recently directed two Jaguar brand films, 17 Call of Duty: Ghost game cinematics and two Gatorade Fierce commercials.
