Product Design Lead based in London.
Currently Head of Design at LendInvest.
I have a keen interest in the space where humanity and technology meet. I'm big on empathy, recognising the effects the things we make have on society and how this all translates into a product strategy.
Outside of work I co-host the podcast thistbh with Will Thomas where we discuss product design with leaders from the community.
I also help run a community called Triangles for designers in and around London; If this sounds like you come join us on Slack.
Here are a few of the projects I've been involved with…
Education First are the market leaders in language education and the people who enable them to hold this title are their world class teachers. Working as part of a team spanning across three continents, I lead the design of an internal tool which provides EF's teachers with the world class experience they deserve.
Details available at interview
Whilst at Eurosport I led a number of cross team activities which culminated in a rearchitected service IA, a user centric approach to product strategy, their first design system and a unfied vision for the experience which would serve their 200M+ users.
Case study coming soon
Working closely with the Product and Tech leads for the blinkbox 10ft experience I redesigned the Movie & TV show pages to be more performant both in terms of usability and device speed.
This was key to supporting business goals of deploying on to more devices and reaching a wider market.
