I’m based in Carnwath, near Biggar, nestled in the rolling hills of South Lanarkshire, and I work with clients locally and remotely across the UK, Europe and the USA.
I’ve been designing and building websites since the early days of the web, with over 30 years of experience and a strong foundation in visual, user experience and interaction design. For more than 15 years, I’ve led UX and accessibility work for some of the UK’s largest financial institutions — including Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland, Scottish Widows, Halifax, MBNA and Bank of America — as well as supporting small businesses, start-ups and charities.
I studied graphic design at Manchester’s Shillington Design College and continue to bring that design sensibility into every project. I’m also an experienced photographer, specialising in landscape, portrait and product photography. I’ve served as a judge for one of the world’s largest international photography competition website, and I’m a proud typography nerd — the kind who gets excited about ligatures and line height.
What I Do
Web Design & UX, UI, Interaction Design
I create websites that are easy to use, easy to manage, and built around real people’s needs.
Accessibility & Inclusive Design
Accessibility isn’t an afterthought — it’s built in from the start. I help teams make sure their sites work for everyone.
Drupal Development
I build flexible, secure sites in Drupal — ideal for content-heavy organisations that need room to grow.
Photography
I also offer portrait and web photography to help bring warmth, clarity and a human touch to your brand.
My Approach
I work independently, but collaboratively — taking the time to understand what matters to you and your audience. My process is straightforward and transparent, with no jargon or surprises.
Whether you need a full site, accessibility review, or just someone to make things simpler, I’d love to help.
