About me

While my background is in animation, I am an illustrator/designer first and foremost. I have found that the skills I acquired during my five years of studying in The Irish School of Animation, Ballyfermot, Dublin, are easily applied across the visual arts spectrum. Since graduating in 2007 I have worked on many different projects, from standalone posters and album art, to a two-year period as an in-house designer for and Irish gift company, to an animated sequence for The X-Factor USA, to an asset designer/creator on various iPod/iPad games. In my spare time I am constantly drawing and pushing my skills, actively searching out new approaches and styles to continue growing as an artist.
