About

Hello! I'm Dan — a British-born, Australian-raised, US-based creative director living in Boston, where I lead the Brand & UI Design team at 829 Studios

Whatever the challenge, I always focus on simplifying the complex. Translating business goals into strategic brand systems and digital experiences that strengthen positioning, engage audiences, and align teams.

When I’m not designing, I’m running. Next up: the London Marathon in April 2026.
