HELLO!

I am Jess, a Product Designer with a background in Sales and Marketing.

Having worked in Sales and Marketing for the first part of my career, I took on various roles which involved liaising with designers for artwork creation and website design. I was craving a career path that was more creative and after learning more about the process of Product Design from a UX angle it was clear this was the right path for me.

I really enjoy the process listening to user experiences, aligning these with client business goals and then translating both into useful and intuitive digital solutions to make online journeys more successful.

The General Assembly course was just what I needed to kick start my new career, having completed the course I am still soaking up as much knowledge as possible from endless blogs, Medium articles and newsletters. I am also completing further research into accessible design and UI principles.

With my previous roles being in Sales and Marketing, I have experience of account management, SEO, social media content creation, artwork design, stakeholder management and working to strict deadlines!

I am a self-motivated, fast learner and would love for my next role to help me advance my Product Design skills further, whilst putting them to use on exciting and challenging projects.

Please get in touch if you have any questions/opportunities.
