About me
I'm a Product Designer specialising in fintech since 2017. My background is rooted in analysing legacy applications and rebuilding them as modern, lightweight experiences. I strike a balance between visual style and technical feasibility, leveraging emerging workflows, especially AI-assisted prototyping, to move from complex problems to scalable, accessible, code-ready design solutions with speed and precision.

Senior UX Designer · MarketAxess
I was part of a specialist UX team tasked with deconstructing years of legacy feature-bloat to develop a new, React-based execution platform from the ground up. I collaborated with stakeholders to solve existing UX problems and emerging business needs with speed and efficiency. I also developed a cohesive & accessible visual language and a centralised component library, creating a design system for a vast platform ecosystem. As the team grew, I mentored new members on design process and systems thinking.

Product Designer · Appraisd
I was the sole product designer at Appraisd, working with the company founder to modernise their SaaS performance management platform and introduce intuitive new features. I collaborated in workshops to develop initial sketches and wireframes, continuing through to high-fidelity prototypes and final delivery. I developed a component-based design system and worked closely with developers throughout the process to get the implementation just right.
