What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead UX/UI and design systems work, use AI-assisted workflows like Claude, and build accessibility-first, data-driven digital products with developers and product owners.

I’m a Senior UX/UI designer focused on usability, accessibility-first journeys, and full UX-to-UI delivery. At Babel Group (IRN DESIGN & DELIVERY COLLABORATION & CONTEXT), I lead the full UX process, partner with developers and product owners, and use Figma prototypes and shared libraries to ensure consistent handoff across complex, high-regulatory public digitalisation programmes.

I also bring advanced AI-augmented design workflows—using Claude and Generative AI for design decisions, structure, content, and rapid prototype production. Previously, as Senior Design Lead / Creative Director (Self Employed), I integrated generative AI into daily creative and production cycles, delivering multi-channel campaigns and scalable brand systems for 30+ clients, while earlier leadership roles strengthened my cross-disciplinary, stakeholder-ready approach.
