My long journey into art direction started at the age of 10, designing web assets for Habbo Hotel fan websites. Since then it’s been a wild ride that’s taken me all over the world creating work for some of the world’s most iconic brands.

If you’d have told that nerdy 10 year old that one day he’d shake off his immense shyness and enjoy leading teams of designers, photographers, animators and directors to create TV campaigns, print ads, social content, tech innovations and much more, he probably wouldn’t believe you.

If, however, you told him he’d still be playing Warhammer 40,000, he definitely wouldn’t question it.*
