About me

I am an enthusiastic, self-motivated Senior UX Designer (Design Manager) at The Student Room Group, where I manage two designers and a number of agencies when we out source work. I represent all aspects of design (Digit, Print, UX/UI) for the group and their clients (RAF, Student Loans Company, UEA University, Love Honey etc). I regularly conduct Design/UX workshops both internal and client side.

I am enthusiastic, self-motivated, with strong communication and organisational skills, which I have developed during my career. I have an advanced understanding of UX/UI and Visual design for web and mobile. My knowledge of colour for both digital and print is strong, and my typography, illustration, animation and photography composition/ re-touching skills are to a very high standard.

I am a strong team worker with an excellent understanding of working within a Scrum (Agile) environment. Regular responsibility running user testing sessions either within office or due to the current situation via digital means. I am proactive in my planning and time management. As a designer my attention to detail is extremely high and every project I work on gets completed to the highest possible standard.

My HTML and CSS coding skills are extremely strong. I have an advanced understanding of web and particularly email both standard and responsive. My knowledge towards other coding languages such as HTML5, Java, PHP, WordPress etc. is also strong. I have a good understanding towards particular CMS systems and my SEO knowledge is growing throughout my career development.
