I specialise in Human-Centred Design. In particular in the earliest stages of project identification, establishing user needs and applying creative approaches to product and service development.
Design Thinking is an application of Human Centred Design and the wider design 'toolkit' toolkit' to business and strategic projects which I have been involved in for over 7 years. Establishing the role real people play in the success of innovations, fostering a 'making things tangible' approach and applying creativity to complex projects.
