Selected projects

Complex problems, made clearer.

A selection of work across education, enterprise software, and everyday wellbeing. Each project looks at the decisions behind the outcome, not just the interface.

Guroo Learning - Discussion Boards

EducationCommunityProduct Design

Guroo Learning's existing Posts & Announcements feature supported basic course communication, but customers needed richer ways for learners and facilitators to interact. Many were relying on third-party tools to fill the gap. I helped define and design a discussion system that brought channels, posts, comments, reactions and content management directly into the learning platform.

I helped redesign Nuix’s licensing experience, bringing processes that were spread across multiple systems into a centralised platform for managing organisations, users, products and licences. The challenge went beyond interface design. Licensing involved complex business rules, different user groups and dependencies with Nuix Workstation. My role was to understand that ecosystem, make the complexity visible and help translate it into requirements, workflows and a product the team could build.

A portfolio should do more than show finished work. I redesigned mine as a product - defining the audience, clarifying my positioning and creating an experience that helps people quickly understand not only what I design, but how I think and work.
