Turning creative dreams into reality has always been my passion. For over 25 years, I've blended technology, storytelling, and design to empower millions of creators around the globe. In 2001, I founded FXhome and created HitFilm - a groundbreaking video editing and VFX software trusted by over 6 million users worldwide, recognized widely by tech leaders and YouTube's creative community. In 2021, FXhome joined Artlist—a vibrant, creative company dedicated to supporting creators everywhere. Today, as Artlist’s Chief Innovation Officer, I proudly champion our global innovation initiatives. Working alongside talented teams in R&D and Product, my role is to explore, nurture, and deliver game-changing innovations—particularly in generative AI and next-generation creative technology. From fulfilling lifelong ambitions (like being featured in an Apple keynote) to collaborating with inspiring teams daily, I'm grateful for every step of this exciting journey.
As Chief Innovation Officer at Artlist, I champion strategic innovation across the organization, working closely with our R&D and Product teams to identify and nurture groundbreaking opportunities. My role centers on driving forward generative AI, advanced creative technologies, and ensuring Artlist continues to set new standards in empowering creators worldwide.
From Rembrant to Picasso, from Manet to Monet, we have framed some of the most significant pieces in the history of art. Our work isn’t just featured in museums and galleries worldwide; you’ll find them in elite private collections, palaces, and even on board superyachts. Every frame is custom-made for the artwork it elevates. Our small and dedicated team have the highest attention to detail, with hundreds of years of elite craftsmanship experience between them. Founded by John Davies and now enriched by his family, quality and excellence are our guiding principles.
I founded FXHOME in 2001. Over the next decade, the company grew from a start-up to a global technology leader. Since then we've been driven by a commitment to innovative design and our fantastic community. I continue to lead FXhome as we embark on our most exciting partnerships, collaborations and projects to date!
