I’m a UI/UX Designer
With a passion for Games and History
I build engaging digital experiences backed by user research, psychological methodology, and academic expertise.
ABOUT ME
Back in 2017, I got my first 3D printer and became obsessed with design. I found myself at the computer using all manner of software to craft experiences that impressed in both the physical world and digital one. The passion I felt pushed me to study digital design, surrounding myself with some of the most brilliant minds in both the academic field and the work industry. Fast-forward to today, I’ve had the privilege of designing interactive experiences with start-up game studios, businesses looking to increase their online presence, and apps/software looking to increase their market appeal.
Using my background in award winning historical research, I excel in the preparation and execution of user research activities, gaining valuable information that helps prototypes (and eventually deliverables) hit the mark each time. Combined with my keen eye for design and it’s methodologies, I’m able to craft experiences that capture the user with well tested layouts and enticing visual flair.
When I’m not at my computer, I enjoy designing new projects for my 3D printer, playing games such as Catan, Dungeons & Dragons, Minecraft, and Factorio, as well as spending time with my three cats.
