My pronouns are he/him

I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a design degree from Goldsmiths. Back then I spent some time exploring set design and installations, and worked on lots of posters and materials for events and festivals.

After uni I worked as a freelance designer in Glasgow, for sustainability charities, independent businesses and cultural organisations. I then moved to a branding agency in London where I experienced working with some larger clients, and honed my skills in brand strategy, web design, and motion graphics.

I now specialise in digital design, having discovered the satisfaction of taking a brand's visual language and shaping it into a user interface (UI). And I enjoy tackling the challenge of communicating complex information through user experience (UX) design.

I’m a strong believer that a product not accessible to all is not a successful design – and I’m excited to help make the web more accessible.

I’m from Bristol and have lived in Brighton, Glasgow, and now London. I love cities mainly because of the access to cultural spaces. Often in the most interesting buildings in a city, these are places that offer access to safe spaces, facilities, and entertainment/education – often without even having to pay!

What I most enjoy about my work is pairing the digital with that physical experience. The goal of a website should be to reflect the experience of the actual place, its distinctiveness, and its openness – offering information and access to all.
