Hi, nice to meet you! I'm Sam Ballard;
an independent digital designer based in East London, working in a variety of disciplines, since 2012.

What I do

I've been making things as long as I can remember, and never shy away from learning a new craft. From animation to UX, if it's 2D, I make it. I work well as a fingers-in-all-the-pies design lead, for small companies, startups and charities, spending most of my time designing games and ethical services. If you have a project you're passionate about, I want to help you make it happen.
