About me
I apply a human centred and empathetic approach to my design process, creating user experiences which not only put the user at the heart but also bring value to the business. Focusing on the user first and building on the business goals and needs within design challenges, is something I’ve done throughout my career and is something I continue to pursue within the field of User Experience.
