About

I’m an Irish Creative Director and Designer based in Dublin, Ireland, working across commercial design and direction. I’ve led global campaigns for brands including Nike, DAZN, Virgin, FIFA, and more, collaborating with some of the world’s leading creative studios, agencies, and production partners.

My work spans CGI, illustration, and live-action film, with a strong focus on crafting visually driven commercials from concept through to final delivery. I specialise in shaping ideas, building and leading creative teams, and defining bold visual languages—directing work that connects design, motion, and storytelling into cohesive, high-impact campaigns.
