Hello! I'm Elise, creative designer and design manager. Proud woman in tech and woman in leadership. Over 10 years experience in international branding and marketing, product development, events and more. I currently lead the interaction design of the GOV.UK app for the UK Government.

I'm inspired by people. I design solutions in response to glimpses of insight - frustrations, opinions, blockers, realities, workarounds, emotions. Wherever possible, I hone in on foundational problems - the roots of our behaviours - so I can consider interventions holistically and make meaningful change.

I build and motivate creative teams. I specialise in design management and documentation systems that facilitate collaboration, improve traceability and rigour in design projects. Clear, thorough documentation reduces duplication of work and empowers everyone on the team to make informed decisions.

I'm at my happiest when I'm turning messy information into compelling stories. I love a challenge - whether that's the nuts and bolts of design for production or researching, distilling and presenting complex information.
