About me
I'm a resourceful, multi-disciplinary design lead with expertise in user experience, user interaction and visual design. A strong leader and communicator with an eye for detail and an empathetic design approach, I have over 25 years experience in a variety of retail industries. Starting out as both designer and developer has given me an understanding not only of the creative process, but also of the technical requirements that support everything we create for users.
I've been interested in computers ever since the age of seven, when a BBC Micro was wheeled into my junior school and I had to be physically prised away from "Granny's Garden". Since then, I've acquired a plethora of consoles, built my own PCs with varying degrees of success, and discovered an RPG addiction that has yet to go away.
I'm an avid gamer and cosplayer, making my own costumes and props in my spare time, as well as entering nationwide competitions. I've won numerous masquerades across various Expos, been asked back to judge at the EuroGamer Expo Cosplay Championships, had my work featured in magazines, and been invited by Blizzard to their launch event for Heroes Of The Storm.
