Designing systems that turn
complexity into clarity.

I'm a product designer who gets genuinely interested in how complex systems work, and even more interested in making them understandable to the people who depend on them. I work best on hard problems, across teams, where design shapes more than just the interface.

Currently Senior Product Designer at Back Market

How I work

Narrative-First Design

A framework for aligning teams on the user story before any design begins, and why plot point 4 is the one most teams skip.

Solve the Right Problem

Five questions I ask before opening Figma, because good execution of the wrong thing is still failure.


About

An Irishman living in Berlin with ten years of problem solving design work behind me. Starting in industrial design, a stint in graphic work, and eventually product design. It's where I feel most at home.

In my work, I like to be involved early and close to the people building the product, helping teams get aligned on what they're actually building and why. I ask a lot of questions, I'm good at finding common ground between disciplines, and I aim to create the conditions for great work to happen.

Outside of work I'm usually behind a camera or working towards some physical target. I'm always open to a challenge!

Get in touch.

I care about working on things that leave people genuinely better off. If that's what you're building, I'd love to talk.
