With 20 years of experience in the design industry, I have worked with some of the biggest agencies and in-house teams across the world. My expertise lies in creating SaaS and digital service platforms that not only look great but also deliver a seamless user experience.
In my most recent role, I have spent the last 2 years leading the design department at Fast Radius & Sybridge Technologies, where I have overseen the successful launch of several major projects. These include the design of a new SaaS platform that allows customers to analyse, improve, make and ship parts, plus an end-to-end internal platform that allows our teams of product managers and engineers to handle workloads on multi-million dollar projects for companies such as Tesla and Space X.
I have a proven track record of being able to lead cross-functional teams and work collaboratively with stakeholders to deliver projects on time and within budget. I am passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest design trends and technologies and I constantly seek out new ways to improve the design process.
