What I've designed

IFS R&D International

Designed a dedicated widget for IFS Home that surfaces delayed check-ins directly in users' daily workflow — reducing manual monitoring and enabling faster exception management.

Mobile Workforce
Management

As Senior Lead UX Designer, I drove discovery, customer validation, and end-to-end design for an enterprise workforce scheduling and dispatching platform — modernising the experience without disrupting mission-critical workflows.

Dispatch Console
Gantt View

As the founding UX Lead, I introduced design thinking to a team with no prior UX process — then used it to help dispatchers allocate field technicians across a unified Gantt, map, and calendar.
