About me

Most products don't fail on looks. They fail in the gap.

The gap between what the business built and what the person expected — a label nobody understands, a step that asks too much, a screen that hides the one thing they came for.

I find those gaps with research, personas, journey maps and heuristic evaluation, then design them shut. Five years across enterprise platforms, B2B tools and consumer apps.

I use AI throughout — synthesising research, pressure-testing flows, cutting variations fast — so more of the time goes into judgement rather than production.
