About me.

Graduate of the get sh*t done school.

I’m Liam, a product designer with 15 years of experience, currently based in Scotland. I live with my extremely patient wife, our daughter, our Labrador, and over 50 tropical fish (at last count). My journey in design has been an exciting one, with the past six years spent at Gecko — four as a product designer and the last two as a senior designer.

I believe in not overthinking. My approach is rooted in leveraging experience, moving fast, and delivering solutions that effectively meet both user and business needs. Simply put, I get sh*t done!

What defines me as a designer? I learn from my mistakes (and there have been plenty), I’m a personable team player, and I’m driven by curiosity — always seeking inventive ways to benefit both the business and its users.

My ethos.

How I approach design.

One size doesn’t fit all

Every project is unique, and so is my approach. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all design process. Instead, I adapt my methods to fit the specific needs and challenges of each project, ensuring the best outcomes for all.

Strike a balance

User advocacy is at the heart of what I do, but I understand the importance of business goals. My strength lies in striking the right balance — creating designs that delight users while driving business success. It’s about finding harmony between empathy and strategy.

Get stuck in

Whether it’s lending a hand to different departments or diving into code, I’m always ready to get involved. My background in web development means I’m comfortable wearing multiple hats to ensure projects are delivered on time and to a high standard.
