Profile

I design and build products end to end. I started out filming and designing for a car detailing shop in Halmstad, spent two years doing much the same in Salzburg, and came back to Armenia to work on brand identities, web platforms and films for hardware and software companies. I learned to shoot, design and animate by hand long before generative tools existed — which is why they work for me now: I know what I am asking them for. Most projects run from first sketch to deployed product to launch film, and take one to three weeks.
