Creating
since 2012
Started as a designer in 2012, moved through UX/UI, then into software engineering in 2020. Since then I've worked across websites, mobile apps and custom CRM systems, most recently an AI mental health tool built with a clinical team. I design for function first, where every element has to earn its place before anything decorative gets added.
My MSc in Clinical Psychology helps me run my own user research: interviews, usability testing, measurement. I study how people actually behave, then design to reduce cognitive load, so interfaces ask less of people before they can use them. I enjoy solving real problems and building things that make sense to the user, not just the screen.
