About

To find out more about me check out my Medium ramblings here.

Having the advantage of a cross discipline background has lead me to now create compelling experiences for people using in depth research methods and rapid prototyping techniques and focusing on what I believe is important in sustainable design.

I pride myself on being a natural leader and thrive in a flexible yet goal oriented structure. I am an interaction designer with a project management bent. I am looking to further develop my management skills through communication, collaboration and transparency during the entire design process. I would love to work for a company that challenges me in this area, as well as having the support and desire of peer-to-peer knowledge sharing.

My choice to transition from the world of fashion and retail to Service Design was based around a desire to explore the key role technology plays in creating positive impact for users.

Before making this transition, I worked for seven years with stakeholders to improve the user experience, specifically for the fashion retail environment with both European and US based brands. This experience has laid a strong foundation from which I have continued to deepen my professional working techniques, dealing with team dynamics and understanding of complex situations.
