I’m a product designer, currently Head of Design at Backer — an app that helps parents save for their children’s education.
We’ve successfully raised $9M in Series A and acquired Saving For College after 2 years of focused work to identify a product–market fit and drive growth experiments.
Previously, I worked at Meta and Farfetch, where I led the mobile application design team.
I’m inspired by humble brutalist architecture and have a collection of retro games and consoles.
Both remind me that innovation often arises from limitations, leading to solutions that are striking and unexpected.

In 2020, I joined Meta’s International Commerce team, where we focused on the localisation of Instagram shops. I worked on implementing currency conversions, auto-translaitons, localised checkout and international shipping.

My goal was to improve the engagement. So I focused on growing our mobile apps.
Eventually I created a specialist mobile app design team at Farfetch.

Accessible inputs
Looking closer at micro-interactions to improve usability, I led the initiative to make our native apps more inclusive and accessible.

Farfetch
China app
As a principal designer, I led
our Shanghai-based design team to create and launch a localised version of the Farfetch app in 2018.
Accessible prototyping kit
I defined design standards for the native app and developed toolkits to help designers ensure that Farfetch interfaces are always AA accessible.
