A bit about me πŸ‘‡

Hi, I'm Calum, a Product Designer based in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

In the past, I've helped create a range of data-centric products at Whitespace and aided in creating data-migration tools at WanDisco.

As a designer, I am passionate about solving complex user problems through the use of thoughtful research, smart technology and elegant design. I specialise in creating accessible and efficient interfaces that make technology easier and more enjoyable for everyone to use. However, more than anything I thrive under a team that is creative, curious and ambitious enough to leave a lasting impact.

If you would like to work together on a project or just want to say hello, please feel free to get in touch.
