About Me

Reflections on design, technology, product thinking, and the industry around it.

I’ve spent more than 20 years working across digital product design, UX, UI, customer experience, and product strategy, through agency life, large organisations, growing teams, redesigns, transformations, launches, failures, fixes, politics, process changes, shifting trends, and everything in between.

This site exists as a place to share thoughts, observations, lessons, and stories from working in the industry.

Not polished “thought leadership”.
Not recycled LinkedIn posts pretending to predict the future.
Just honest perspectives from someone who’s spent a long time designing digital products and navigating how the industry continues to evolve.

I’m particularly interested in the space where:

  • design meets real-world delivery
  • product thinking meets business reality
  • AI meets creativity
  • systems meet human behaviour
  • and good intentions meet legacy technology

The digital world moves quickly. Tools change. Processes change. Job titles change. Entire workflows appear almost overnight. Some things genuinely improve. Some things are simply trends wearing better marketing.

This blog is a place to explore all of that.

You’ll find posts covering topics like:

  • UX and product design
  • design systems
  • accessibility
  • AI and design workflows
  • customer experience
  • product strategy
  • design culture
  • research and experimentation
  • digital transformation
  • design-to-code workflows
  • the realities of working in modern digital teams

Some posts will be practical. Some reflective. Some opinionated. Others will simply document ideas or moments that felt worth sharing.

Alongside this blog, I also run my main website at

If you’re interested in the wider design industry, evolving technology, digital product thinking, or simply the messy reality of building things in modern organisations, you’ll probably find something here worth reading.

Thanks for stopping by.
