Thirty years
designing SaaS.

Most SaaS is designed for the people buying it, not the people using it. I work on the second half. The unglamorous half. The part that decides whether your users come back tomorrow.

About me

I’m a product design consultant with 30 years of experience across SaaS, enterprise software and AI products.

I’ve worked inside agencies, startups and product teams, and these days I focus on complex B2B applications: the dashboards, workflows and systems that businesses run on.

When I’m not designing, you’ll find me enjoying a coffee, running (yes, for fun!) or working on my next tiny home project.

I write about this on the blog, including why I give one client one full day.

Services

I work on the part of SaaS products users actually live in: dashboards, workflows, complex interactions and design systems. Project engagements for founders shipping new products, and one-day-a-week retainers for product teams that need senior design without the full-time hire.

For SaaS Founders

Defined projects with direct access to a senior designer. From first wireframe to shipped product, you work with me directly: no agency overhead, no juniors, no handoff loss. Ideal for founders shipping a new product who need someone to own the design end to end and move at startup speed.

Discuss your project

For Product Teams

An embedded retainer, one day per week. I join your team, sit in the meetings that matter, and keep design context across releases instead of relearning your product every sprint. You get senior design capacity on tap, without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.

Let's talk

For Agencies

Think of me as your Design Angel: white-label senior support for when the workload spikes or a project needs deeper product thinking. Product strategy, design systems and prototyping, delivered quietly in your tools and templates so your team can present the work as their own. I have sat on both sides of agency life, so I fit in fast.

Recent projects across SaaS, enterprise and AI products.

Some of it under NDA, so what's here skews toward the work I can show. It's the kind of work I wrote about in why I design business apps.

Get in touch

👋 Hello, I live in sunny Perth, Western Australia.

If you've got a project in mind, email me a bit about it and I'll reply within a day. If a call makes sense after that, we can book a Google Meet or grab a coffee in Perth.
