Statement

Hello,

I am an outcome, not output, driven Product Designer currently working at Infobip where I have worked in the Growth and the Marketing Automation teams with my specialisation in SaaS marketing automation software and Product Led Growth (PLG). I enjoy solving user problems and making their working days more enjoyable and productive. For me design, all design, is about problems solving and solving problems is what drives me.

I've been involved in digital design since back when iMacs were white plastic! I've worked as a front-end and campaign developer at Selligent using the very tools I ended up designing to do work for some of their biggest clients (Tesco, Future publishing, Odeon Cinemas, and Games Workshop to name a few) so every poor piece of UX in that software I had to endure on a daily basis. This gave me valuable insights into how our clients used our products and equipped me well in my transition to Product Design.

Strengths

User testing evangelist. At Selligent not one project went into development without being user tested. At the end of my time there we were conducting usability weeks on a monthly basis with our clients after transitioning away from UserTesting. Usability weeks gave us crucial insights into our design process as well as continuous discovery and being an important piece of the client relationship process. I once even conducted testing with paper prototypes remotely during the pandemic lockdown period. Read about that here.

Outcomes over output. I design user journeys, not screens. I like to deep-dive into my projects and get a thorough understanding of the big picture to identify wider problems, not quick fixes. I'm also big on analytics and how they can inform our designs.

Inclusivity. Facilitating workshops is my superpower (not my words!) and I truly believe that design is inclusive. Good results are not conjured up by lone designers but are the culmination of teamwork.

Miro hero. I love a Miro board and probably spend 70% of my time there. Figma is always the last tool used in my design process.

I also own my family name’s dotcom address :)
