About me

I’ve always been drawn to figuring out how things fit together. As a kid it was jigsaw puzzles. As an adult it became design systems, workflows, and the connections behind how real teams get work done. Like puzzles, I like the moment when everything finally clicks and a complicated process becomes clear or a team gains the context they need to make a confident decision.

That curiosity shapes how I design. I start by understanding the system, the people inside it, and the pressure they are under. From there, I look for simple, reliable ways to turn complexity into tools that feel intuitive. Over the past 15 years, I have moved between visual design, product design, and enterprise UX, always trying to connect the small details to the larger business story they support.

These days, I focus on internal tools that help companies stay aligned and move with confidence. I care about clarity, context, and building experiences teams can trust. When design works, it disappears and people can stay focused on what actually matters.

When I’m not designing, I’m chasing good food, traveling, watching Manchester United with cautious optimism, or getting lost in a Lego build.
