About me

I am a UX/UI designer with a background and education in Fashion Design. I have five years of industry experience across three different countries ranging from technical hardware design to childrenswear graphics. New challenges have always driven and excited me whether it’s moving somewhere new or working with an unfamiliar product or market, I’ve never been one to shy away from an opportunity to grow as a designer. Through this I have learned to be resourceful when approaching a new brief by utilising my technical skills and eye for detail when working through the design process. Now, I’m looking forward to drawing on my design experience and using it to find useful and creative solutions to problems in digital products that will make a positive impact on people’s lives.
