About me

Hi, I'm Max.  A Senior UX designer with experience developing multiple B2B and B2C products from initial research and strategy, through to detailed Ui design. Assisting product teams to realise their ideas across a range of digital touch-points.

Since studying Product Design at university I've worked as a designer for dedicated product teams within start-ups, design agencies, and large corporates. I'm a strong advocate for UX principles and a lean release product development process, to build fast and learn fast.

I also love to share what I've learned to uplift other designers as I grow - demonstrated by multiple public talks at UX camp Brighton

Outside of work I try not to notice UX issues in my favourite video games, enjoy my below average rock-climbing skill, and am a qualified scuba-diver. (Unfortunately none of these skills have come in handy at work.)

Always happy to meet more people in the industry so if you fancy a chat get in touch!
