A little bit about me
I nerd out on products that do what users want and then get the hell out the way. I also strongly believe that taking the ego out of design is a necessary step to creating truly user-centric products.
I’ve created products for a range of users including thrifty Londoners, Ugandan businesspeople, and German energy traders, for companies such as Barclays, RBS, Metlife and Omorovicza. Most recently, I was a Senior Product Designer at Booking.com.
Right now I’m:
📦 Learning about Object-Oriented UX
🔗 Exploring Figma’s new ‘variables’ feature
📖 Reading Victor Papanek’s ‘Design for the Real World’
In my spare time, I’m currently enjoying:
🧗♂️ Climbing (despite a debilitating fear of heights)
🕺 Salsa dancing (trying to add to my current repertoire of one single dance move)
🗺️ Maps (just really big on maps)
I also love teaching: I’ve been an Instructor Associate at General Assembly and have given presentations at TechCircus and Founders & Coders.
Like what you’ve heard? Let’s talk.
