Who am I?

Welcome! I’m a UX designer with a background of almost a decade in teaching, and that has helped guide my style. Old habits die hard: I do whatever I can to make things simple and easily digestible; being challenged to be creative this way is something that fuels me. Turning towards my design interests, I focus on languages and education, but I’m open to whichever field that presents itself.

My switch from teaching English as a Second Language to UX/UI design initially occurred around 2023, based on the epiphany when I was creating lessons: I liked this aspect more than teaching itself. Fortunately, making the move to design has been smoother than imagined! After all, designing for a user-centered experience ultimately involves clear explanations and creativity, which as a teacher I am no stranger to. So, when all is said and done, I approach design with a dogged mindset whilst being appreciative of the parameters at play to ensure users are given the best possible experience.

Outside of designing, you can find me playing sports (hockey and Gaelic football) as well as trying to learn several languages and dreaming about travel. As the saying goes: healthy mind, healthy body!
