For the Compass Workshop animation, I handled everything from concept to final edit. I developed the narrative, storyboarded, and designed a detailed 3D mountain landscape with water, vegetation, and fire. Using Illustrator, Photoshop, Cinema 4D, Octane Render, X-Particles, and After Effects, I created and animated the environment and characters. I then refined pacing and transitions in Premiere, delivering a polished animation that effectively conveyed the workshop’s message.
Overhaul of ayrking.com
For AyrKing, I led the website redesign and brand refresh by creating a comprehensive design system, developing wireframes and mockups, and producing custom 3D product renders showcased throughout the site.
The sleek, modern redesign enhanced both functionality and aesthetics, resulting in a more engaging user experience. This update significantly boosted site traffic and user engagement, proving the impact of a well-executed redesign.
Overhaul of vantagep.com
Overhaul of mobilitycg.com
For the Mobility CG website redesign, I developed a refreshed design system that expanded the color palette while staying true to the core brand colors. I created wireframes, page mockups, custom icons, and all animations, ensuring a cohesive and engaging user experience. The result was a modern, fun, dynamic website that enhanced both functionality and brand presence.
This sampling of 3D renderings were created in Cinema 4D with Octane Render, showcasing fully 3D environments that I designed, textured, and lit using 3D lighting. These images have saved clients significant costs, as I can produce realistic application renderings at a fraction of the price of a photoshoot, offering greater flexibility and more options.
As a UX designer, I create wireframes that define the structure and functionality of client websites, ensuring seamless user experiences. By focusing on navigation, layout, and user flow, I translate business goals into intuitive designs that enhance engagement and usability.
I transform wireframes into comprehensive design systems, structured layouts, and high-fidelity prototypes for client websites. By refining visual hierarchy, interactions, and usability, I ensure a seamless, engaging, and user-centered experience. My process bridges strategy and execution, delivering polished designs ready for development.

Spring 2020
T&S WaterWatch is a device that connects to pipes to monitor water flow. Visualizing this abstract concept was challenging, but I represented the idea by showing water flowing with sound waves emanating from it. For this project, I led the narrative arc, and developed the storyboards. I created the animation using Illustrator, Photoshop, Cinema 4D, Octane Render, X-Particles and After Effects. I also handled the animation editing and music choice. The project was completed in 8 weeks in 2020.
All of these animations were storyboarded and executed by me from production to final editing, using a range of software including, Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Cinema 4D, Premiere Pro, Octane Render and X-Particles.
I crafted realistic and fantasy mountain-scape renderings for a corporate website using Cinema 4D, Octane Render, X-Particles, and Forester C4D. This included designing landscapes, vegetation, water, materials, procedural growth, clouds, and lighting, resulting in highly detailed and immersive environments.

Digital 3D render of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
All the elements in the piece are 3D. My goal was to make a more accurate depiction of a Jewish woman in 1st century Palestine according to historical sources.
I utilized iconographic motifs from the tradition of sacred art, but I also broke with it with the overall look and feel, pose and demeanor. I wanted to focus more on the "earthiness" of the sacred—the tactile and "everydayness" of holiness—and downplay the Neoplatonic ideals that are represented in much of Christian art.
