My traits as a designer
Understand people deeply
Naturally energised by working alongside others, I believe that collaboration and transparency toward achieving a mutual goal are essential to building the foundations of a great team. Open communication helps to foster an environment where everyone can contribute their best.
Understand people deeply
I use data to help me identify user behaviours and patterns that are typically difficult to understand from merely observation. With data I am able to use as clear leverage when convincing stakeholders to agree with my decisions. Additionally, I have a good understanding of the metrics to hit and improve upon.

Strong craftsmenship
Using a varied stack of software is key to getting the best of my needs in delivering the best outcome. I’ve been a design practitioner for 5+ years and made it my passion making me exceptionally well at it. I put thought, love, care and attention to what I produce.
High level of agency
I go after what I want despite my circumstances not being perfect. I’m actionable, confident and alert when taking ownership of a situation well before it matures. I identify problems before they become obvious to others.
Product strategist
I have a natural ability to foresee the product vision with optimism and pragmatism. Consequently, setting epics and OKRs for the team to structure delivery outputs, with a great level of understanding of considerations, risks, resourcing and success metrics
Solve problems that drive business goals
Delivering quality outcomes for customers is great, however, my experience means Iam able to create solutions that solve user problems and drive business growth. I am always open to make trade-offs when my design solutions doesn’t do both. Commerciality X UX go hand in hand.
Opinionated yet adaptable
I actively seek and value 360-degree feedback from colleagues and stakeholders. This ongoing feedback helps me refine my people management skills and continuously improve how I work, benefiting both the team and the organisation.
Embraces ambiguity
I throw myself into the deep end and do not sit around waiting for senior stakeholders to provide the next instruction. I find ways of inserting myself into conversations early on so that I can thrive in ambiguous problem spaces. By being part of earlier conversations, I become better at identifying the right problem to solve and be steps ahead to shine the light on thr right direction.
