Hey i'm Connie.

I'm a product designer with roots in front-end development. I enjoy solving problems, asking questions, and building digital products that make people's lives a little easier.
I got my start in the golden era of MySpace customisation, teaching myself HTML through badly coded layouts, marquee tags, and an unhealthy amount of trial and error. Long before I knew what UX was, I was already asking too many questions and trying to figure out why things worked the way they did.
That curiosity still shapes the way I work today. I enjoy taking complex problems, understanding the people behind them, and finding simple solutions. I've worked across AI, media, finance, and design systems, but I still get the most satisfaction from building products that make sense.
Outside of work you'll find me doodling in my sketchbook, lifting heavy things at the gym, or seeking out nature whenever I can.
