I'm the design sorcerer you hire instead of three.

Why one sorcerer

Most teams need brand work, social content, motion and print. Usually that means hiring three different freelancers and hoping they stay in sync.

I do all four. The identity I build is the same one that ends up in the feed, in the animation and on the printed piece. You brief it once, and the spell holds.

How can I help you?

I make brands that stick in people's minds. Starting from nothing, or reviving one that's lost its spark: logos, typography, colour, and the guidelines that hold it all together after I hand it over.

I build the templates too, in Canva, Figma and PowerPoint, so your non-designers can still make things that look right.

Brand identity

Social moves fast and most brands lose themselves keeping up. I help you keep pace without losing the plot: posts, carousels, stories, reels and campaign assets for Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn.

The trick isn't making content. It's making content that still sounds like you after the platform has had its way with it.

01

Social media content

Motion

Movement is where the magic actually shows. I animate logos, social content, LED screen work and large-format visuals for live events, the kind that makes a room go quiet for a second.

I art directed the motion for the SIBS 40th anniversary gala and for two years of the Champalimaud Vision Award ceremony.

Print production

03

Not every spell is cast on a screen. I prepare print-ready files for large-format graphics, event materials, packaging and marketing collateral, and I handle the bleeds, colour profiles and unglamorous details.

Files come back from the printer looking exactly the way you approved them.

About me

Very early on I found out what it feels like to make something people stop and stare at, visuals that feel like magic. Watching a room react to something you and your team built is a particular kind of high, and it stuck.

Six years later I'm still chasing it, across brand identity, social content, motion and print. I'm Brand Lead at Battle Royal Studios, an award-winning studio that works with clients worldwide. I designed the social campaign announcing Illenium's show at Sphere Las Vegas with the Woodblock team, built brand guidelines for Banco Montepio, and art directed LED work for the SIBS 40th anniversary gala and the Champalimaud Vision Award ceremony.

In 2022 the Open Air identity I co-created with AnaFatia Studio won a Bronze A' Design Award.
