More than a decade building for the web
Design is at the heart of everything I do, I believe that a close relationship between visual design, UX and front-end engineering expertise leads to a better customer experience within digital products.
As a specialist in modular design systems and component libraries, I work to bridge the gap between design and engineering disciplines and am a catalyst for fast, iterative processes within agile product teams. My technical experience spans a wealth of front-end technologies ranging from modern SPA frameworks to run-time performance profiling, testing and accessibility.
