What I've worked on
Who am I
In both design and life, I believe in setting ambitious goals, embracing challenges, and enjoying the quiet satisfaction of achieving them. With focus and determination, I know big leaps can lead to the most rewarding growth.
That mindset led me to leave a corporate banking career to retrain in UX. Six months later, I landed my first design role and was promoted to Senior Product Designer within a year. Following this I freelanced for a couple of years, majority of the time working in fintech space, helping companies bring their first product to market. Most recently, I’ve joined Code and Theory, a leading US agency, embedded with a major global client in the financial sector.
I’m at my best when I’m solving complex problems and pushing myself to deliver work that makes a real impact.
