Showing 31 of 31 projects
Audio-first learning, on the commute
An audio summaries app for people who want the substance of a long read in the length of a drive. I designed the full listening experience — discovery, player, queue, offline library and the subscription flow behind it.
Property search without the noise
A property marketplace connecting buyers, renters and agents. I designed the search, listing and enquiry experience for buyers, plus the listing-management side agents work in every day.
Energy operations, made legible
An operations platform for energy asset monitoring. I designed the dashboard, alerting and reporting experience used by control-room teams — dense information without the wall-of-numbers effect.
Point, scan, decide — in three seconds
A barcode and label scanner that tells people whether a product fits their diet. I designed the scan-to-answer loop, the confidence and correction states, and the onboarding that teaches the app's limits honestly.
An AI assistant that shows its work
A workplace AI assistant. I designed the conversation surface, the source-citation pattern and the workspace where teams organise prompts, so answers can always be traced back to where they came from.
Group trips that survive the planning
A trip-planning app built around the part that actually breaks: group agreement. I designed shared itineraries, split expenses and a decision flow that stops a trip dying in a group chat.
Growth metrics without the noise
A growth analytics platform. I designed the reporting workspace, funnel and cohort views, and the shared component library the whole product is assembled from.
Sending money that feels safe
A peer-to-peer payments app. I designed the send, request and confirmation flows with a focus on the moment of commitment — the point where users are most likely to abandon or make a mistake.
Planning for what comes after
An estate and legacy planning platform. The design challenge was emotional as much as functional: a heavy subject, long forms and decisions people avoid. I designed a pace that lets them stop and come back.
Training that adapts to the week you had
A gym and training app covering member workouts, class booking and coach-side programme building. I designed both sides plus the shared component library between them.
Wellness without the guilt loop
A wellness and habit app. I designed the daily loop, progress views and reminders around encouragement rather than streak anxiety — a deliberate departure from the category norm.
Ordering food in three taps
A food ordering and delivery app. I designed browsing, customisation, checkout and live order tracking — plus the restaurant-side screens for accepting and preparing orders.
Fresh groceries, honest substitutions
A fresh grocery delivery app. The interesting problem was variable stock and weight-based pricing — I designed substitution, part-fulfilment and price-adjustment flows that keep the customer informed.
Custom apparel you can see before you buy
A custom apparel store with an in-browser design tool. I designed the customiser, the product preview and a checkout that handles print options without overwhelming first-time buyers.
A wishlist that becomes a purchase
A social wishlist app for saving, sharing and gifting. I designed list creation, sharing permissions and the gifting flow — including the reserve mechanic that stops two people buying the same present.
Local help, matched by trust
A neighbourhood task marketplace connecting people who need help with people nearby who can give it. I designed posting, matching, messaging and the trust signals that make a stranger's profile readable.
Booking a specialist who actually shows up
A marketplace connecting RV owners with mobile service technicians. I designed the booking journey, technician profiles and the job-management screens technicians use in the field.
Deliveries tracked without the guesswork
A courier and delivery platform covering the customer app, the driver app and the dispatch dashboard. Three very different users, one design system.
Conversations worth coming back to
A social app built around interest communities. I designed the feed, posting and community-joining experience, plus the moderation tools that keep the place usable.
Meeting people, minus the awkward
A friendship and social discovery app. I designed profile creation, matching and the first-conversation experience — the moment where most social products lose their users.
A city's network in one place
A local networking and events app. I designed member profiles, event discovery and the RSVP-to-attendance loop that turns a listing into someone actually turning up.
A game built for group chats
A social guessing game. Designing for fun is its own discipline — I designed the round loop, the reveal moment and the sharing flow that brings new players in.
Planning the day, not just the guest list
A wedding and events planning platform covering vendors, budget, guests and the running order. I designed the planner experience and the vendor-facing side.
Practice that keeps beginners going
A music learning app. I designed lessons, practice sessions and progress tracking, with a difficulty curve built to hold beginners through the first fortnight — where most music apps lose them.
Editing video with your thumbs
A mobile video editor. Getting a timeline, precise trimming and layered effects to work under a thumb is one of the hardest interaction problems in mobile design — and the core of this project.
Gentle by default
A reminders app for people who find task managers stressful. I designed capture, scheduling and notification behaviour around a calmer default than the category usually offers.
Peer learning with structure
A peer learning and mentorship platform. I designed matching, session scheduling and the shared workspace where pairs track what they are working on together.
A professional network with a purpose
A professional networking platform. I designed profiles, connection discovery and the messaging layer, with an emphasis on signalling intent so introductions land better.
Enterprise tooling that fits a phone
The mobile companion to an enterprise operations system. The task was deciding what genuinely belongs on a phone — and designing those few things properly rather than shrinking a desktop app.
Running a season, not a spreadsheet
A sports event promotion and management platform. I designed event setup, participant registration and the promotion tools organisers use to fill an event.
Presenting spaces properly
A portfolio and project platform for an architecture and interiors studio. Visual-heavy design where restraint matters — the interface has to disappear behind the work it presents.
A good share of this work sits behind an NDA, so those entries describe the design problem and the decisions rather than showing the screens. If you are evaluating me for a role or a project and need to see more, ask — I can usually walk through protected work live on a call.
