About

I'm based in my hometown of the beautiful island of Jersey, channel islands. I would consider myself calm, lighthearted and it will feel like a friend while we work together.

A little about me to know what makes me tick, other than experience design and photography -

I'm a keen runner currently training for The Jersey Marathon in October '22. Learning French, as being blessed to live so close to France it feels a shame not to utilise and involve my love of travel without relying on locals to translate. I'm a big advocator of both climate change and animal rights, so I'm also a vegan to support these issues.

I love being able to make technology and design useful, usable, and beautiful for people globally, solving problems and creating memorable experiences using human-centered approaches by always putting the user first - ensuring their needs and expectations are met at every touchpoint of their journey.

With a sharp business eye, I have had the opportunity to completely restructure processes with optimal results.

I have worked my way through remarkable brands such as Specsavers, IOD and Feelunique. This experience has helped me gain a broad skillset spanning UX, product, design and emerging technologies to encompass and enhance both user experience and conversion.
