Why UX?
“I’ve spent the last 10 years connecting businesses with people through thoughtful and considered design solutions. I’ve also spent the last 10 years being endlessly curious about the world around me and pondering how our ever changing digital landscape affects society and in turn my design practice.
My design ethos has always been underpinned by the belief that design is about solving problems so users don’t have to. It’s about creating solutions that are durable and functional in order to help people make better decisions every day”
