The Rise of Al-Powered Design

So, you want to know more about me? I'm truly flattered. Well, I have probably about 20 years experience in design, I've given up counting. I've worked with many companies as a product and brand designer. On the side, I love nothing more than to create. Like this website for instance.

Work Experience

Over the years I've worked for various companies. Some big, some small, but I like to think it's helped me get to my 10,000 hours.
