A little about me,
and what drives me.
I’m an award-winning BSc User Experience Design graduate, now studying MSc Service Systems Design at Aalborg University. My UX experience includes digital service work at Edinburgh Napier University and digital product design at Graphcore.
I’m interested in how people, processes and technology shape one another, and how thoughtful design can make complex services easier to use.

04 / AWAY FROM THE SCREEN
A little time by the water
Some of my best ideas happen away from the screen. Fishing gives me space to think, approach problems with patience and understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
Outside of work, I also enjoy playing padel and fishing.
