What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a challenging and rewarding opportunity where I can apply my UI design, creative direction, web design, and human-centered design experience to create engaging and accessible digital solutions.

I'm currently Lead Designer at Springboards.ai in Melbourne, bringing more than 15 years of advertising and digital design experience across Ireland, Australia, and the USA.

At April Six, I led web projects for AWS and HP, running wireframes, prototyping, testing, creative direction, and production from start to finish. I also served as Senior Art Director, focusing on smooth design execution and exceptional digital outcomes.

I've created campaigns and digital experiences for brands including Subaru Asia, Salesforce, Coles, Bupa, Renault, Aer Lingus, Nissan, and UNICEF. My work spans web design, UI/UX, responsive websites, online advertising, email design, video, print, and campaign production.

I care about engaging, accessible, human-centered digital solutions that connect audiences with the brands and products they need.
