\n\t\t\n\t\tA brief history of me
\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\n
\n\t\tI studied Graphic Design at the University of Salford and after completing a few internships,\u00a0 I was convinced I was going to end up in advertising.

After graduating, I worked at a couple of small agencies as a graphic designer and then got a job at a digital agency where I had the opportunity to move into UX, working on some amazing projects for clients such as the NHS, Chelsea FC and Domino\u2019s Pizza.

My background is mostly in designing for mobile but since being at DEPT\u00ae, I\u2019ve been immersing myself in all things web, getting to grips with different technologies\u00a0 and how they work. Luckily, users are still users no matter what device they\u2019re using, so it\u2019s been an easy adjustment!

My career has taken a totally different path than what I expected when I was first starting out, but I love all things UX and digital and I\u2019m excited about this next chapter at DEPT\u00ae!\t<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\t
