Product Designer
in Glasgow, Scotland
Hi, I'm Andrew. I'm an experienced product designer who loves working in early-stage and scale-up startups. I have a track record of leading projects, building scalable design systems, and shaping thoughtful solutions to complex UX challenges. I'm passionate about user testing, improving design ops and accessibility. Lately, I’ve been interested in how AI can enhance and streamline the design process.
Recent projects which showcase the process, visuals, and the impact of my work
This involved the development of a Figma plugin for internal use that allows for dynamic input fields. This allowed for much smoother prototype building experience and a more hands-off approach to usability testing.
This involved exploring, building and maintaining a design system for Twig Education's Middle School science platform. Using Sketch, Abstract and Marvel for design, version control and handover, I explain the process in detail.
Some work that I do in my free time, to learn and experiment with ideas
An assumption tracking toolkit for product designers. Assumely helps you track, validate, and manage your assumptions per project. A Figma plugin also lets you include these assumptions directly in your files.
