Summary

I am a passionate and dynamic Animation Producer with 15 years experience in leading high quality end-to-end animation production for some of the world's leading children's brands. Collaborating with some of the best and most respected animation studios across Europe, Asia and the Americas.


I thrive in high pressure environments and believe in proactive intervention by anticipating potential problems before reaching crisis point. Strong on quality and keeping to budget, I believe that passionate and enthusiastic leadership inspires teams and delivers great results.


I have worked in both a creative and technical capacity within the animation industry which in itself brings huge advantages and enables a comprehensive and rare understanding of the entire production process from inception through to delivery.
