About me

I've been researching, designing and delivering online services since 2007. I've designed User Interfaces for apps and websites but since early 2019 I've moved into pure research. Most of my work comes from Digital Transformation projects. Helping organisations grasp user-centred design and Agile working is the most rewarding part of what I do.

Here's some examples of how I think:

• Our top User Research Mistakes - talk for UX Edinburgh at Product Tank
• Fintech Design - talk for Scottish Fintech
• Kiss Goodbye to Your Good Old UI - talk for UX Glasgow
• Data UX: Beyond Wireframes - blog post for Testing Time

I run the following:

• The monthly UX Glasgow meet-up with Neil Scott since 2013
• The UX in Scotland Facebook group since 2014
• The Scottish Fintech meet-up with Sergei Miller-Pomphrey since 2018

As a designer I've been inspired by:

• Indi Young's 'Mental Models'
• Erika Hall's 'Just Enough Research'
• Jakob Nielsen and Don Norman for inventing UX
• Steve Krug for democratising user testing
• Jon Kolko's 'Thoughts On Interaction Design'
• Heydon Pickering's inclusive design
• Bill Buxton's 'Sketching User Experiences'
• Mike Rohde's sketch notes
• Avinash Kaushik's actionable insights
• DIY punk
