With over 15 years of experience in crafting digital products and experiences for companies like Ford, Avios, HSBC, ABRSM, Diageo and more. My skill set is a bridge between insights and functionality and the beauty of well-crafted design.I’m also co-host of Product Unleashed, a meet-up for product people by product people launched in 2020, where our guests share unique insights, tangible ideas, and new techniques with the product community. When I get the time I enjoy giving back as a design mentor on ADPList, where I help to foster the next generation of design talent one session at a time. I believe that a designer's toolkit should include the skills to build long-lasting, trusting, and collaborative relationships with partners and stakeholders, and I work hard to make design knowledge accessible to everyone.Leading with empathy and getting the best out of those who I collaborate with.
