A UX/UI Designer with a psychologist's eye

Anyone can design today, but finding a designer who truly understands what consumers want is rare. With 3 years of marketing experience and a strong background in consumer psychology, I build user-friendly web experiences that not only keep visitors engaged, but also inspire them to take action.

About

Based in London, working as a content designer (Marketing Executive) at BH1 Accounting

Based in London, working as a content designer (Marketing Executive) at BH1 Accounting

I studied consumer psychology and trained as a content writer, so the interfaces I design explain themselves, and people never have to guess what to do next.

Most usability problems start in the gap between what a product says and what a person expects. I work in that gap, using consumer psychology to understand why people hesitate, and clear writing and layout to remove that hesitation.

I design in Figma and understand how a system fits together, from components to full pages. I always start by reading the screen as a visitor would, then write intuitive copy that keeps them engaged and moving forward.

See it as the user does

I design from the visitor’s point of view, not my own, so every choice starts with what they need to understand.

Think in systems

I look at the structure behind the screen first, so every page stays consistent and easy to scale.

Value over decoration

Colour and style serve the brand’s story. I choose what communicates meaning, not just what looks nice.

Always Learning

If users have to think, I haven’t done my job

I study why people hesitate, click, and quit, then design the version where they just don’t.
