DIGITAL WEB & UI/UX DESIGNER | DUBLIN
I've been designing for the web for over 13 years — long enough to have hand-coded HTML websites and Flash animations. What hasn't changed is what I care about most: making digital experiences that actually work for the people who use them.
After becoming a designer, I studied Psychology and Sociology to better understand the people I’m designing for. That now shapes how I approach every project — understanding what users need, what creates friction, and what builds trust. It's why I lean into user research and accessibility, not as box-ticking exercises, but as the foundation of good design.
Accessibility first
Every project is designed to WCAG standards — not as an afterthought, but from the first sketch.
User-centred process
A background in psychology means I always start with the person on the other side of the screen.
Design that ships
I speak both design and code — which means fewer surprises between Figma and the final build.
