I’m a London based UX Researcher. I’m currently working with dxw specialising in government, charity and third sector projects.
Before UX, I worked in a few different industries. After leaving college with an art and design degree, I worked in film, hospitality, as a tutor and photographer.
From working in those industries, I knew I wanted something creative, collaborative and interesting. UX was the perfect mix for me.
I started out as a UX Designer working in startups then utilised my skills in research to work as a researcher and designer. I now really enjoy working as a sole researcher, leading and planning research projects.
