What I'm looking for

Looking for a role that leverages my expertise in UX, analysis, and delivery to drive business growth and innovation.

I am a seasoned UX Designer with over 20 years of combined experience in UX, analysis, and delivery. I have led projects in usability engineering, behavioural science, and technical knowledge to take projects through development and delivery. My approach remains consistent, with a focus on delivering bespoke dev projects, interaction design, and refreshing ecommerce portals.

I have worked with various clients, including Saint Gobain, 8x8, TCC, and CLS, delivering UX design and analysis on a range of initiatives. I thrive in the pursuit of finding creative solutions to real-world challenges, and I have the ability to head up and motivate a team as well as work autonomously.

I am a creative problem solver at heart, with a strong background in usability engineering, behavioural science, and technical knowledge. I have a proven track record of delivering successful projects, and I am passionate about finding innovative solutions to complex problems.
