I started my career designing restaurant menus & funeral stationery in Hong Kong.
10 Years later I specialise in digital product design, working with some of the biggest brands & agencies around.

10 Years later I specialise in digital product design, working with some of the biggest brands & agencies around.
Most recently I led the Selfridges Product Design team, & looked after the ecommerce side of the website & app. In 2 years I built a Design system from scratch, & re-designed the homepage, PDP & PLP experiences.
Before this I worked at a number of top agencies, predominantly working on modernising the digital experiences of big automotive brands like Audi, Volkswagen, & Škoda - sites used by millions of people.
I’ve had a varied background, dabbling in branding, video production, & even project management, so I have a strong appreciation for both craft & process. I see myself as a hands-on designer that can wear many hats.
