ONEINTHREE


I've spent 25 years working out how to tell a story in 30 seconds — and how design, technology, performance, sound and image can make an idea land.

My background crosses commercials directing, interaction design and creative technology. I've directed for Riot Games, Ford, British Gas, Ellie Goulding and Bloc Party, and designed digital products and experiences for Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Sony, Nike and the BBC.

I've won D&AD Yellow Pencils for interaction design, been BAFTA-nominated, and had work shown at the Design Museum and ACMI.

More recently I've been building with AI: using generative tools across image, video, audio and code, and founding Bods™ — a physical party game with an AI judge that I took from idea through interaction design, brand and rapid prototyping to a live product.

I'm interested in the space where creative direction, interaction design and emerging technology meet — how new tools become useful in creative production, and how technology can feel more human rather than less.

Open to creative direction, creative technology, AI creative and directing roles.
