Melbourne Native ☕️ 🥑 🚃 - with a passion for designing thoughtful, beautiful and easy-to-use digital experiences. I work with stakeholders, researchers, co-designers and developers to create products that people are delighted to use.

With over 15 years of experience, I began my career as a graphic designer before discovering my true calling in UX/UI design. I wake up every day eager to explore new ideas and technologies in this ever-evolving field.

Currently, I am working on an exciting new product at carsales, with the goal of adding significant value for our users and growing our team to collaborate with a diverse group of people.

When I'm not working, you can find me playing basketball, biking along the beaches, or cooking up meals for my family and friends inspired by recipes I find on YouTube.

Strengths 💪

I bring a wealth of experience to the table, including a strong track record of designing early stage ideas and collaborating with researchers to gather insights. My background in front-end development allows me to effectively communicate with engineers and ensure the final product meets our high quality standards. I am also a skilled communicator and enjoy engaging in debates and discussions with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders, as their critiques and feedback drive me to continuously improve my work and create meaningful products for our users.
