There’s value in both beautiful code and beautiful design.
I thrive when working with developers, designers, architects and product owners to engineer fantastic solutions to complex problems that excel in form and function.
I’m passionate about React, UI design, user experience and duck tikka masala.
I’m currently leading Netcraft's front‑end team to unify their design system, UI, UX and tech stack.
My PhD research explored the use of technology to track and influence emotional well‑being.
Specialities
I have a multi-disciplinary background across tech, design and psychology. I collaborate closely with developers, designers and product to build beautiful and intuitive user experiences.
As an accessibility advocate, I care about ensuring that content is accessible to everyone. I'm experienced with WCAG standards and I'm keen to consult with companies who strive for inclusivity.
I work with product teams to create design guidelines, tokens and component libraries, improving efficiency for developers to create UIs within the boundaries of the design system.
