Over the past 8 months, I’ve been working as a UX/UI Designer at the University of Liverpool. During my time here, I have had the privilege of advocating for user-centric design across the university. One of the initiatives I’m particularly proud of is the UX Breakfasts I’ve hosted. These sessions provided staff from various roles an insight into the UX design process, fostering a culture of user-focused thinking and collaboration.
In addition to my role at the university, I have recently co-founded a design agency. This venture has allowed me to gain diverse experience across multiple sectors and user groups, significantly enhancing my design versatility and problem-solving skills. Working on a variety of projects has equipped me with the ability to adapt quickly and approach challenges with a fresh perspective.
I am currently seeking a role that offers a steep learning curve, varied projects, and opportunities for career development. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can continue to grow my skills and make meaningful contributions.
Beyond design, I love exploring new recipes in the kitchen—it's my way of unwinding and getting creative. Reading is another passion of mine; I'm always on the lookout for books that challenge my thinking or transport me to different worlds. And of course, weekends are all about adventures with my dog, Alice.
