Award-winning designer

With a 14-year design career, I am an expert in leading the design of impactful, user-centred digital experiences

Most recently, I was Principal UX Designer at Tearfund, supporting people living in extreme poverty. I’m now seeking a civil service role to help improve public services.

Featured projects

  • Three mobile phone screens displaying different steps of Tearfund's donation form, illustrating the user interface and process for making a donation.

    I led UX efforts to optimise Tearfund's donation journey, including an accessible, user-friendly forms redesign and an in-depth A/B testing program with Conversion.com.

  • The donation page on Tearfund's website displayed on a laptop, with text overlay highlighting project achievements: improved conversion, engagement, accessibility, usability, and efficiency (reducing design time by 50%).

    I created a design system from the ground up and led a successful redesign of Tearfund’s websites, improving accessibility, engagement, conversion, and efficiency.
