UX + Product Design
Design Systems
As a product designer, I focus on building scalable systems that drive consistency, speed, and alignment across teams. Whether it’s part of a company-wide initiative to focus on consistency or productize internal tools into revenue-generating applications, design partnered closely with product, engineering and data experts to create a robust design system that improved efficiency and supported a growing suite of applications. This work enabled faster delivery, improved accessibility, and a more cohesive product ecosystem.
Key contributions included:
– Design tokens for scalable theming (typography, color, spacing, accessibility)
– Reusable, spec-ready components with documented states and variants
– UI pattern libraries to reduce redundant work and ensure consistency
– Figma libraries optimized for fast prototyping and seamless dev handoff
My Process
1. Define Scope & Structure
Align on goals, MVP vs. future-state features, and begin laying out core UI structure using the design system
2. Collaborative Refinement
Work iteratively with product owners and subject matter experts to explore edge cases and validate user needs
3. Validation & Dev-Ready
Deliver polished, implementation-ready designs with supporting documentation for smooth engineering collaboration
Getinge
is a global corporation who specializes in OR design and equipment. During my three years of freelancing at the company I was a part of the rebranding of necessary materials including (but not limited to) product catalogues, email promotions, spec sheets, etc. for both internal use and print distribution. Working with a client of this size gave me insight into the operations of a larger company and the importance time management to meet deadlines.
Please browse some of the work I completed during my time with the company below.

Smyths Toy Superstore
is a toy store across Ireland that I came across post college while I moved abroad to gain some life experience and start my career as a digital designer. The project was to take existing products and lay them out in a standard magazine spread for distribution while maintaining the stores playful appearance.
