A plain image with text "How did you start your career?" — I started in print design, but quickly transitioned into UX design as it ties together my interests in creativity, psychology and tech to improve people’s lives.

A plain image with text "What project is keeping you busy right now?" — We are redesigning a B2B talent assessment platform from the ground up. After a successful initial project, we’re collaborating with the client again to develop their product and user experience. It’s a challenging but rewarding project! 💪

A plain image with text "What's a highlight of working with DPP?" — No two projects are alike, so being trusted to work the way we believe is best for each one (rather than sticking to a fixed process), means we can adapt to constraints and come up with innovative solutions to tricky problems.

A plain image with text "What's your happy place?" — Walking in nature 🌳 is my meditation. And I love riding around London on my bicycle (despite the many potholes along the way!).
