"AKA Gillz"

About Me

I have worked in a few different, yet connected industires over the years. With this, I have a greater understanding of design limitations and the ability to identify opportunities where design can be pushed. UX Design is a passion of mine as it encapsulates the importance of aesthetic appeal and information being strategically structured, to allow for the best experience when engaging with the product. The greatest design pieces are functional, they make sense, while being captivating. I enjoy staying on top of design trends and encorporating them into my projects as a way to connect with the desired target audience.“Creativity is intelligence having fun” - Albert Einstein

Portfolio

Betway - Digital Assets

The various creatives that are focused on sport were done for Betway Germany. I have created mailer images, print assets, social posts, video, web banners and website collateral during my time with Betway.

Websites

These are newly designed websites or landing pages for various brands.

Casino Lapsed Player Mailers

The brief for this job asked to draw lapsed customers back into the casino by using game characters and some homour. I chose to do these mailer images as a comic strip and used the characters from the offered casino games within it.

Dark Waters

The game Dark Waters is one of the best performing games in the casino at the time of recieving this brief. The client wanted to promote this game to the lapsed players. The challenge is that there are no game characters to support the creatives. I decided to go with an old scroll to support the idea. These mailers were sent to the English and French market.
