Personal Profile

I'm a Product Designer who enjoys untangling complex problems and turning them into products people actually want to use. Over the past seven years, I've specialised in product design, working across fintech, wealth management and SaaS, partnering with product managers, engineers and business teams from discovery through to delivery. I enjoy bringing clarity to complexity through research, workflow design, scalable design systems and thoughtful interfaces, helping teams make confident product decisions and deliver better outcomes.
