About me
I’m a generalist design professional, with a passion for creating interactive experiences for mission-driven companies. I live in Scotland, UK with my husband and my 9 year old cockapoo. I love exploring new places and spending time in the great outdoors. I’m open to occasional travel and hybrid working - always up for an adventure!

For over 10 years I’ve been working with start-ups, scale-ups and agencies, building experiences across mobile apps, web, TV and wearables. I created multiple interactive experiences that boosted engagement and conversion: weekly active users, daily logs, unlocked new revenue and led to positive user and media reviews.
-
Every project needs a unique approach, but typically I:
Understand the problem and user needs through research and data analysis (100+ hours of interviews conducted over the years)
Explore solutions with the team, while addressing the business need and the technical constraints.
Iterate through prototyping, a/b testing, user testing and design reviews
Release in stages, assessing impact along the way
Optimise and learn through data and user feedback.
-
The magic is in the collaboration - helping founders define direction, working with engineers to find the best way to build the envisioned experience within constraints, working with other designers to create a seamless experience in line with design system and brand.
I thrive in complicated interactive product ecosystems, figuring out edge cases, creating multi-platform experiences.
