@davidaffran
I am a UX designer crafting intuitive, user-centered digital products.
AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I'm a Brisbane-based, multi-skilled designer with over ten years of industry experience creating intuitive digital experiences for agency and corporate clients.
I specialise in end-to-end UX and product design—shaping design systems at Fugro, prototyping AI features at Coviu, and driving UX audits that reduced sign-up drop-off by 25% at Suncorp—working primarily in Figma and crafting documentation for non-design stakeholders.
I take a user-centred approach that balances customer needs with business objectives, enjoy facilitating workshops and research, and collaborate reliably to bring the customer's voice into the heart of the business.
