Solar calculations tool
Automates complex renewable energy reporting, saving time on every submission to Ofgem. Helping towards enabling more renewable energy solutions to be installed.
I design and build accessible digital tools that solve real-world problems
I'm a Service and User Experience Designer who works collaboratively to create lightweight, accessible websites and apps that make everyday tasks easier. I work exclusively with organisations creating positive social and environmental impact — turning ideas into practical tools that save time, improve efficiency, and serve people's needs.
Technology for good
I work with purpose-led organisations — from renewable energy providers and environmental projects to education initiatives, community organisations, and social enterprises. If your work benefits people and planet, I want to help you succeed.
Recent projects
Image resizer
Makes it easy for non-technical staff to prepare images for web updates, reducing file sizes, saving time and energy use.

About me
I'm a Service and User Experience Designer who specialises in designing, prototyping and testing products and services to ensure they're straightforward, accessible, consistent and respectful.
Accessibility is non-negotiable. I'm passionate about removing barriers and going beyond WCAG guidelines to ensure people using assistive technologies can genuinely use what's been built.
I work collaboratively, facilitating workshops and bringing together stakeholders with compassion and professionalism. When projects need additional expertise, I partner with trusted specialists to deliver comprehensive solutions.
Let's talk about your project
My work
Wellbeing Hub
Challenge
A community organisation in Stockton needed an accessible platform for their mental health and wellbeing support services.
Solution
I conducted user research with people who'd accessed wellbeing support, then designed and built a fully accessible website on Squarespace. I trained the team on content management and digital accessibility.
Result
A WCAG AA compliant platform that the team can confidently update themselves, bringing together multiple partner organisations and making vital support services discoverable and accessible.
Solar calculations tool
Challenge
A renewable energy company needed a faster way to submit detailed data to Ofgem for each installation.
Solution
I designed and developed a web-based calculator that automates the complex calculations and generates ready-to-submit export files.
Result
The tool saves several hours of manual work per installation and eliminates calculation errors.
Rice recipe finder
Challenge
A national rice brand needed to increase engagement and showcase their product range in inspiring ways.
Solution
I designed and built an ingredient-first recipe finder that became the centrepiece of their "What's in Your Kitchen?" campaign, featuring 150+ recipes with instant filtering.
Result
75% increase in site engagement, 50,000+ recipe searches in three months, and a 43% increase in online sales.
Trigonometry trainer
Challenge
Secondary school students were struggling to remember the steps involved in solving trigonometry problems.
Solution
I co-designed a step-by-step calculator with teachers that shows both the answer and each stage of the calculation process.
Result
Significantly improved student confidence and comprehension, with increased participation in KS4 maths lessons.
Image resizer
Challenge
Content publishers were spending too much time manually preparing images for their website.
Solution
I built a simple drag-and-drop web app that automatically resizes and exports images to required dimensions.
Result
Image preparation reduced from several minutes to a few seconds, improving workflow efficiency and consistency.
Services
I offer a range of design and development services, always with accessibility and sustainability at the core. When projects require additional expertise, I collaborate with trusted partners to deliver comprehensive solutions.
App design and development

If your organisation's work benefits people or planet, I'd love to hear from you.
My approach
Every project starts with understanding the challenge. I move quickly from idea to working prototype, so you can see progress early and shape the result. I believe useful software doesn't have to be complicated.
Accessibility as standard
I ensure everything meets WCAG AA standards as a minimum, but I go further to genuinely test with assistive technologies and ensure real usability for everyone.
Sustainable by design
I write lightweight, efficient code that uses minimal energy. Lower bandwidth means faster loading, reduced costs, and a smaller carbon footprint. I host on renewable energy-powered servers.
User-centred process
I involve real users throughout — from initial research through to testing prototypes and the final product. This ensures what I build genuinely serves people's needs.
Collaborative working
I design and deliver engaging workshops that bring stakeholders together. I work with compassion, curiosity and professionalism, and bring in specialist partners when needed.
Typical project process
Timeline: Most apps start with a simple prototype in 2 to 3 weeks, with full builds taking 1 to 2 months depending on complexity.
