Here I’ve put together a few examples of my user interface design, interaction design and user experience work. I’m unable to publish much of my work online, but more can be supplied upon request.

A good user experience comes as a result of understanding the user and keeping them at the heart of any solution. I see brainstorming, sketching, user journeys, wireframing and prototyping as important tools for solving complex design problems. I believe that design thinking can solve any problem.

Grid, typography, colour, texture and visual hierarchy are the key ingredients of my visual design work. I aim for every design to have a clear focus and, in general, a strong call to action.

Having years of front-end development experience, I know my way around HTML/CSS, Javascript/jQuery/AJAX/JSON, SEO, performance optimisation, Web Standards and Accessibility. Beyond web development technology, I’m interested in Design Thinking, Ubiquitous Computing and the enhancing of daily life through creative innovation.

I like to stay informed and participate in the design/tech community via RSS and Twitter as well as by regularly attending conferences and meet-ups.
