Senior UI/Graphic Designer
Vancouver, Canada
Vancouver, Canada
I am a designer who is always keen to bring function, style, humour and spirit to my projects. My credits include over thirty video games over several decades. I recently designed a luxury print magazine from cover to cover. Off the clock, I design fun projects in music. Despite this, I am incredibly humble. I hope to be a key contributor to a successful, high performing, creative team.
I am handy with: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, XD, some Unity, FontLab, pencil.
