A little bit about me

I’ve been passionate about design for as long as I can remember, drawn to colours, creativity, and the tiny details that shape how we feel and move through the world. As I explored the field, I was naturally drawn to UX: a space where curiosity, problem-solving, and human-centred thinking could all come together.

While studying UX at university, I jumped into agency life, wearing multiple hats and thriving in a fast-paced environment. It taught me to think quickly, collaborate openly, and stay adaptable under pressure.

Now at Xero, I design intuitive accounting experiences for small businesses, accountants, and bookkeepers. I thrive in ambiguity, enjoy collaborating across teams, and believe in refining ideas to create solutions that resonate with both the business and the users. What drives me is connecting with people and seeing how thoughtful design can genuinely improve their lives. Whether I’m leading research, fine-tuning Figma files, or bringing new ideas to life, I aim to craft solutions that are clear, kind, and truly useful.

Outside of work, I’m endlessly curious and love trying new things. You’ll often find me strumming my guitar 🎸, upside down in a yoga pose 🧘‍♀️, wandering with music in my ears 🎧, lost in a book 📚, playing cozy games 🎮, or baking and cooking with friends 🍰👩‍🍳!
