Lead Ux/Ui Designer

With extensive experience in user-centric UX/UI design roles, I have consistently demonstrated a strong commitment to driving impactful design solutions that enhance user experiences and contribute to organisational success.

During my tenure at Nester, I led several key initiatives, including the successful launch of the Nester Investor App, the innovative IF-ISA product, and the new Nester Investor web platform. These milestones not only showcased my ability to deliver high-caliber outcomes but also highlighted my proficiency in adhering to regulatory standards, such as FCA rules and guidelines, ensuring compliance and fostering trust among users.

My proactive approach to identifying opportunities for design enhancement and broadening research methodologies has been instrumental in driving business advancement. By integrating tools like Hotjar and leveraging platforms such as Survicate, I facilitated informed decision-making, iterative improvements, and witnessed a notable upsurge in user engagement metrics. Additionally, my involvement in optimizing infrastructure and implementing efficiency-enhancing tools like SuperBlocks underscores my dedication to delivering excellence in user experience.

At Nester, I also took on a leadership role, guiding and empowering a junior designer to foster their professional growth and elevate their skills within the organization. This experience further solidified my commitment to nurturing talent and driving collaborative success within cross-functional teams.

Completing CareerFoundry's UX Design Program & UI Immersion Program has equipped me with a robust foundation in UX methodology and visual design principles. Through this immersive experience, I dedicated over 400 hours to honing my skills and crafting portfolio pieces that showcase my ability to deliver impactful design solutions across various devices.

I am eager to explore potential opportunities where I can contribute my expertise to an innovative, dynamic and user-centric design team. I am confident that my background in UX/UI design, coupled with my passion for driving positive user experiences, would make me a valuable asset to your organisation.

Thank you for considering my application. I am open to discussing how my skills and experiences align with the needs of your organization and am available for an interview at your earliest convenience.
