Hi, I’m Lucy…
I’m a Product Designer with over five years of experience designing intuitive, inclusive, and user-centred digital products across web and mobile platforms.
My work focuses on blending creativity with strategy — from crafting seamless UX/UI designs and scalable design systems in Figma, to collaborating closely with cross-functional teams in engineering, product, and data. I’m passionate about using design to make everyday experiences easier, smarter, and more meaningful.
Recently, I’ve been exploring how AI-driven prototyping tools can accelerate ideation and enhance user research. Accessibility is at the heart of my approach, and I apply WCAG standards to ensure every design supports diverse users.
Alongside my product experience, I bring six years in marketing and communications across non-profit organisations in the UK and USA, spanning arts and education. This background has sharpened my communication, collaboration, and storytelling skills—enhancing my ability to connect diverse stakeholders and see the bigger picture in every project.

Inquisitive
I explore projects mindfully - analysing the journey of a product and its relationship with the user. This curiosity uncovers valuable insights that can than be applied to the framework of an interface and its visual identity.
Collaborative
I am a strong, positive team player who believes that feedback and collaboration are the key to great design. This requires being able to openly share ideas with a commitment to truly listen to fellow designers, developers, team members and users.
Perspective
I am always striving to step out of my comfort-zone in order to learn more about our world, to develop empathy for others and to keep on the pulse of new technology. This viewpoint keeps my ideas fresh and relevant.
