My Portfolio
My Skills
research
UX is a research-based discipline. I use quantitative and qualitative research methods to get to the heart of user needs.
user flows
Well considered user flows for each planned task lead to products that allow its users to complete tasks efficiently and smoothly.
Prototyping
Prototypes bring the design ideas to life and allow design improvements through user-testing before development.
wireframing
I create these comprehensive and coherent blueprints for developers – vital to bringing breath to the creative vision.
user tests
Remote and live usability testing are the most important UX Design tools – giving insight into users’ goals, behaviours and contexts.

About Me
Software Developer
My passion for technology and trying to understand how things work, and why, led me to become a software developer. But, after years of coding, I realised I preferred decoding humans than coding computers.
Wellness Specialist
This led me on a journey of learning everything I could about the human body – physically, energetically and spiritually. I qualified and practiced as a fitness trainer, Pilates & yoga teacher, mindfulness & mindful eating teacher and shiatsu practitioner.
Web Developer
I never could leave my IT past… having taught myself to code websites in its humble HTML & CSS beginnings, I found it the perfect medium to market my services as a Wellness Specialist and then eventually my own studio. Colleagues and clients, knowing my tech-background, would often ask me to help them with ‘computer stuff’, getting me to explain complex tasks in a more accessible way. Word got around and I started taking on private web design clients
UX Designer
These two passions – people and technology – have now merged in a career in UX Design. In this last year I decided to formally upgrade my self-taught web development skills since working as a programmer, by embarking on studies in Full-stack Web Development and UX Design. I’m now excited to bring my knowledge and experience to work on inspiring projects to create usable and accessible products.
