A bit more about me...

I’m an award-winning Product Designer turned UXer based in Dublin, Ireland. After graduating from my MSc in Entrepreneurship at Trinity College Dublin, I started working as UX Designer at Lucky Beard where I fell in love with transforming businesses and creating unique digital experiences. My superpower is that I can color code any sort of data/problem to easily present back it to the team and key stakeholders.

My design process

Working in a fast-paced environment has given me the opportunity to own multiple parts of the user experience of projects.
  • Getting to know the industry and client through desk research and internal and external interviews and/or workshops
  • Creating frameworks to visualise information and communicate outcomes with stakeholders
  • Planning and prioritising features/designs
  • Following the end-to-end user experience from creating the information architecture to designing low to high fidelity wireframes and prototypes informed by best practice research, business processes and user needs
  • Presenting to clients and other key stakeholders
  • Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team
