With a certain versatility in the sort of projects I undertake, my work history ranges from project manager, proposal writer, sculptor, creative consultant to illustrator and animator of both manual and digital work.

I specialize in comic strips and cartoons, with a personal interest in scientific and medical illustration.

I am also very skilled at turning scanned/raster images into vectors (svg). I enjoy working on translation and proofreading projects, which is the more technical sort of work I do.
