I’m a
UX Designer
with a love for data-driven design and a background in Marketing start-up & scale-up businesses.
ABOUT ME
I’ve always loved design. Like really love it.
Over the last eight years, I’ve led the marketing function across various start-up and scale-up businesses, using qualitative and quantitative data to define ideal user types, and create unique 360-degree marketing campaigns to directly solve the problems they’re facing.
My multi-faceted skill set covers graphic design, in programmes across the entire Adobe suite, multiple rebrand projects, and leading on the build of over seven website builds including creating information architecture, brand interpretation, user testing and research, copywriting, and more. In these projects, I was the connector between key stakeholders, external agencies, the engineering team, and, obviously, marketing.
I loved my involvement in the projects I led but it wasn’t enough. I wanted to delve deeper and create solutions that I know bring enjoyment, solve challenges, and can improve the lives of many.
To build on my skill set, I recently completed the Google Certificate in UX Design and Research to provide foundational learning to my self-taught skills.
What should you know about me? I have an innate drive to succeed with a bit of a Swiss army knife skill set. I’m a passionate storyteller and have a thirst for knowledge and self-improvement. I love working in collaborative teams but am always focused on driving the right output that marries business objectives with user goals.
I know I can add value to your business, I’d love the opportunity to try.
