About me
A designer who builds, bridges and leads.
I’m a senior experience designer based in Folkestone, Kent, currently at Holiday Extras where I work across Brand, Product, Growth and Technology.
My work spans customer discovery, AI-powered tooling, design systems, 3D production and high-impact creative campaigns.
I lead workshops, shape product direction, mentor designers and regularly represent the business at partner and internal events — bringing engineering thinking to design problems and creative thinking to technical ones.
