Working on solutions for websites, emails, apps, games, social media campaigns etc; taking advantage of my creative skills in HTML, CSS, Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Mobile Game/App Development, LUA programming – among many others.

Work and Education

I studied design and development with a focus on Computer Game Design and Story Development at the University of East London. Following my undergraduate degree, I returned to Ireland to study an MSc in Digital Games at DIT. As my time in academia came to a close I established the independent game and app development studio: Pixel Wolf Studios, in Dublin and focused my efforts on mobile games/app development. Following this, I continued my journey as a creative digital designer with RRD before taking up the post of Digital Lead in Epsilon, and then into Development Manager (at Hawkeye).
