UX Designer with two years of professional experience in the UK, working part-time alongside my MSc in User Experience Design before continuing full-time. I start every project by defining the problem and choosing the right research approach, then identify pain points and opportunities, turning them into design decisions that balance user needs with wider business goals. I also bring a storytelling approach from my background in industrial design, seeing digital experiences like a theatre production, not only functional but felt, while looking beyond direct interactions to consider the wider journey — creating experiences that fit into users' lives.
