A Proactive Problem-Solver with a Passion for Innovation & Sustainability
Product Designer with a decade-long background in the fashion industry, now focused on comprehensive digital product design prioritising user experience and accessibility.
With hands-on experience across various sectors including mental health, digital experiences, and relationship platforms, I excel at collaborating with cross-functional teams and utilising user research to inform designs decisions. Recognised for optimising design-to-tech handoff processes, enhancing design systems, and delivering user-friendly, visually appealing, and accessible digital solutions.
My design process
Having a well-defined design process provides me with a structured approach to tackling design problems, as well as guidance when I feel stuck and unsure of what to do next.
​
Depending on the problem I need to solve and the project I am working on, I am leaning on one of the following Design processes: the Double Diamond model, the Design Thinking process, or the Design Sprint framework.
