Cupertino. From 2012 to 2016 I was a senior UI designer at Apple, on the latest Apple TV and tvOS, the TV app, the Remote app, Single Sign-on, iBooks for the Mac, iTunes 11 and app icons for iOS 7: work measured in millimetres of motion, frames of timing and careful typography. The patents added up along the way.
Before Apple, I was part of the ANZ innovation team that designed and built the multi-award-winning ANZ goMoney for Australia and New Zealand. The first native iOS banking app in Australia, with a 4-digit PIN and mobile-to-mobile payments.
Back home, I joined Commonwealth Bank as a senior product designer in 2017, then moved to ANZx in 2018 to help build ANZ Plus. Since October 2025 I've been Head of Product Design at ANZ, designing experiences that help Australians make better decisions with their money. The work isn't just shipping software; it's building the team and the craft that makes good software possible.
People first. Pixels close behind. My focus is the humans: hiring designers, growing leaders, and creating the conditions where small teams do their best work. The pixels still matter, a lot, but they're the by-product of a team that cares.
But it's never really about the team, or the pixels. It's about the customer. The person on the other side of the screen trying to pay a bill, save for a house, or make sense of their money on a Tuesday night. That's the whole point, and it's why, twenty years in, I still love design.
