About

👋🏼 I'm a product designer with over ten years of experience. I'm curious about empowering people through thoughtful and well-crafted interfaces and get excited by talking to customers about their problems. I thrive on problem-solving with cross-functional teams, where I am usually articulating the need for intentional design through problem framing and empathy.

Side Projects

2020
Third-wave tea culture × contemporary design

Endeavour Tea is a small business I co-founded in 2015.

It was an Australian specialty tea company with a contemporary view of tea culture, also known as third-wave tea.

Our aims were to engage tea drinkers with delicious, direct-from-source loose leaf tea on our e-commerce store, provide brewing styles and guides, and organise cupping sessions with our local community.

It was really fun to take on print and packaging design, and learn how to create content for a retail brand.

I was responsible for:

  • Art direction and content strategy
  • Brand, web and content design
  • Product development
  • Lifestyle and product photography
