User Experience Designer
BBC SPORT | 2019 - PRESENT
As a UX designer on BBC sport, it was my job to design some of the BBC’s amazing digital experiences – from apps, to websites. It is important for me to work together with users and colleagues, whilst taking a holistic, human centred approach to help create a BBC that’s truly fit for internet age. I am part of a diverse team which reflects the diversity of the BBC audience and their needs. My role includes sharing design expertise and ideas amongst UX, product, editorial and tech teams. This includes sketches to prototypes, iconography to animation & “workshopping” to complex user research.
