I’m a Design Systems Specialist based on the outskirts of London.
If you live in the UK, you’ve probably interacted with something I’ve designed.
I was part of the founding team of the internationally recognised GOV.UK Design System. I have gone on to be the design lead for design systems at BT and Lloyds Banking Group, creating multi-theme systems for their high-value, household-name brands.
I work at the intersection of Design, Accessibility, Engineering and Product Strategy. I enjoy delving into Design Tokens and Component APIs, as well as shaping UI libraries, high-level patterns, team structures and roadmaps.
