About me
A Senior Product Designer with 6 years of experience across the Media, Financial, and Research industries. Born in America but raised in the UK, I blend diverse perspectives into my work. Before discovering UX, I worked as a Project Manager in finance, managing large initiatives and collaborating with stakeholders—a background that helps me easily handle complex design projects.
What I’m Passionate About
I’m passionate about accessibility, ensuring my designs are usable, useful and enjoyable for everyone, including people with disabilities. I believe in crafting simple, intuitive solutions that reduce friction and make even complex tasks feel easy for users. My approach is always user-first, creating designs that are both effective and inclusive.
Outside of work
You’ll often find me watching basketball on TV (big fan here!) or playing NBA 2K. I also love travelling and experiencing new cultures, and I never pass up the chance to catch live stand-up comedy. There’s something special about the energy of a live show!
Hackathons
I’ve had the chance to take part in several hackathons, and each one has been an exciting opportunity to dive into unique challenges and solve problems in creative ways. I’ve been fortunate to have some success, but what I love most is the fast-paced environment, collaboration, and the chance to push my problem-solving skills further. It’s always a rewarding experience!
