👋 Hi there!

I believe great design is far more than just the pixels manifested in Figma or whatever tool is being used. That's important, but the real differentiator is embracing a diversity of thought and a sense of pragmatic optimism. Leveraging the best of everyone in the team to understand and solve complex challenges.

As a true collaborator, I pride myself on my ability to apply human-centred design with a scientific lens to question, understand, hypothesise, validate, design and deliver meaningful and measurable value for users.
