I am a creative, detail-oriented graphic designer turned UI/UX designer with several years of specialized experience in digital and print media.
I graduated in Advertising and Graphic Design from Wigan and Leigh College. I have worked in digital design for the past decade or so, designing everything from banners & business/wedding cards to specializing in editorial design & production for magazines and newspapers. I have created hundreds of logos, infographics and designed thousands of invitations, corporate brochures and newsletters.
I am highly artistic and curious, always looking for emerging concepts and trends by analyzing how things move, connect, and flow. This led me to pursue my studies as a UX/UI Designer at the University of Toronto. For every project, I utilize empathy to try to understand the “who” we are designing for, the “why” of what we are trying to do, and the “what” of the thing we are trying to solve.
When I'm not working, I love travelling and cooking different vegetarian cuisines. I have already visited 26+ countries and counting. You can find my culinary skills on my Instagram.
