Hi, I’m Tom—Principal Product Designer & Strategic Thinker
I bring 15+ years of experience spanning UX, product, and interface design, working in-house and as a consultant. I specialise in turning complex problems into clear, intuitive solutions—from high-level strategy to pixel-perfect execution.
What I Do Best
Systems Thinking & UX Strategy – Connecting dots across products, teams & ecosystems.

Prototyping & Problem-Solving – Making ideas real with hands-on design & iteration.
I stay hands-on, sharpening my craft, and helping teams think bigger, move faster, and design smarter.
