Figma
Figma is my beloved design tool of choice. I keep up with all the latest features and know it inside out.
I'm a problem solver. Whether you're starting a new design project and don't know where to begin or you'd like to examine where your current product could be improved, I'm here to help.
Figma is my beloved design tool of choice. I keep up with all the latest features and know it inside out.
My real passion is designing systems that are consistent and scalable. I obsess over every component and variable to ensure they are perfect.
I can use the design thinking process to refine your interactions and translate them into great-looking and intuitive user interfaces.
I started my career when designers had to be multi-disciplinary. As a result, I'm a rare breed of designer who can code!
I design native experiences for both iOS and Android platforms, adhering to best practices and principles for each.
I've worked on everything from children's books to online virtual worlds, and even dabbled in selling printed works.
I've been working with established brands for decades, so I know how to apply and build upon strict guidelines for maximum impact.
Testing with Figma or HTML prototypes can help avoid expensive mistakes and committing to designs that don't work.
To ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget, they must be accurately scoped at the outset.
2017 - Present
I joined JP Morgan to lead the design of a suite of mobile apps within the Corporate Investment Bank. This resulted in me becoming one of the global design leaders within DXD. In early 2022, I moved to Digital Private Markets where I oversee their investment and networking product, Capital Connect.
2014 - 2017
As one of the design directors at this Glasgow agency, my role was to enforce mobile and web UX best practices through all stages of the design thinking process. I provided clear creative direction and eventual sign-off on their outputs. Clients included RBS, Vodafone and UWS.
2012 - 2014
D8 is commonly regarded as one of the best print and branding studios in the UK. I was tasked with building their digital division to transform them into a full-service agency. Working closely with their product team, I delivered creative and innovative solutions across a range of media.
