Kate worked with us on a UX strategy project for a client. She is excellent. She really knows her stuff, is amazing presenting to clients and work has been outstanding to date. Highly recommend.

I found Kate very responsive and focused on my project. The UX re-design was simple, clear and removed the problems with the existing design that we had.

EXPERTISE
RESEARCH & DISCOVERY
At the heart of all digital products is research & discovery. We need to understand your users intimately in order to cater for their needs & challenges, as well as outlining & planning for the business goals that will define a product’s success.
USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN
A successful digital product requires intentional and considered design to deliver a strong user experience. By placing users at the heart of design choices, I create engaging experiences that drive meaningful connections and brand loyalty with users.
USER INTERFACE DESIGN
Visually appealing user interfaces are brought to life through a combination of successful application of branding, modern design principles and responsive designs optimised for various devices. I always design with accessibility in mind, ensuring that all users can access and navigate your digital product effectively.
