About

With a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Portsmouth, I have gained extensive experience in product design and ownership. As a Product Designer at Stackmotion Ltd and Inngest, I developed visual design languages, built UI, and refreshed marketing websites. As a Product Owner at Royal Navy Design System, I executed a comprehensive roadmap, expanded the system's application, and grew a community around it. Previously, I served as a UI Designer and Owner at Ed Poole Design, and as Lead Designer at Radweb, where I led design for client-facing projects and internal SaaS applications. My expertise includes user interface design, product ownership, and team leadership. I am passionate about creating user-friendly and visually appealing designs, and I have a proven track record of driving successful design initiatives.
