LEON THOMAS
Motion Graphic Artist
Who is Leon Thomas ?
Foremost I'm an artist. I love to create. I draw for pleasure as well as work. My skill set is broad but at the heart of it, I draw. I have been lucky to have learnt my craft on the job, working for some amazing people.
I have the ability to see and hold onto the big picture as well as focusing on the detail.
I know I'm a leader and my passion is working and leading an amazing team. Growing and learning together is something I am very enthusiastic about. I can hold onto a big load and carry it from the start, all the way to the end.
I am very familiar with most large computer systems and have the ability to learn new systems fast.
