I’m a creative with a love of all things design. I have been a designer for 18 years & discovered UX Design and Design Thinking as part of my Master of Design degree. I'm passionate about being able to use design to come up with creative solutions to problems people struggle to solve through traditional means.I have always been drawn to design and how it can be used to creatively solve problems but it honestly feels like I have been stuck in a box for years and by doing further study into UX that box has opened up. All of a sudden I am in this much bigger world of design and the possibilities are endless and I am really excited about it.
