Obtained my first degree in Computer Science and a post graduate degree in Integrated Marketing Communications. Obsessed with learning & acquiring knowledge, a person who always believes that applied knowledge is power. I love sharing knowledge with others wherever I go. I love helping people change their lives for the better, it really makes me so happy that's why I'm here on Udemy to teach what I know in an approachable way and make complex topics easy to understand.
My specialties are: Motion Graphics, Social Media Marketing, Visual Marketing and Whiteboard Animation.
Recently, I have started helping Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners who don't have any design/ motion graphics or animation skills yet they wish to quickly learn some design/motion graphics/ whiteboard animation tools to create professional looking graphic posts or motion graphics or whiteboard videos or web pages to promote their brand instead of paying tons of money to hire someone to do the work for them and this by teaching them some awesome tools like Videoscribe, Adobe Spark and OFFEO.
I have 17 courses on Udemy so far and more will be added soon! all of my courses have at least 10 minutes of free previews available to you, so you can quickly determine the courses that are right for you.
