Product Design/UX

About

Hi, I’m Anthea! 

I'm a Senior UX/Product Designer with over 7 years of experience delivering well thought-out, accessible and beautiful designs across devices for companies such as Monzo, the BBC, Vodafone, Telecom Italia, and Vimeo. Most recently I’ve been leading user research and product design at Patch Plants.

I’m an “end to end” product designer - expert at running customer research, user testing, journey mapping, UI and UX design, prototyping, and A/B testing. In all my roles I've worked closely with developers, product managers, data analysts as well as other designers across UI/UX & brand. I have wide ranging experience across e-commerce, fintech, travel and entertainment.

Previously a lawyer for 6 years, I have been advising clients and directing teams for over 12 years. I enjoy combining creativity and analytical thinking to design products that make people’s lives easier and more enjoyable. 


Testimonials

“It’s been my pleasure to line manage Anthea for the past year at the BBC. She’s a consummate professional with a delightful personal style, always warm and friendly. Anthea is a strong and talented designer, thorough and thoughtful in her work, a great communicator with a clear presentation style and is fair when it comes to decision making. Ultimately she is obviously someone who cares deeply about her work and for the end user. She’s going to fly in her new role and I wish her every success.”
Caroline Galipeau, Senior User Experience Designer at the BBC

"It was great to work with Anthea, and I was really impressed with her creativity and ability to find solutions to such a challenging brief. She was mainly concerned with UI/UX for onboarding clients to our website and to help them set up campaigns. She helped lead a great team and carried out useful research too. Her work was pivotal and will very much help us moving forward in the future. I highly recommend her to any future employer."
Jeremy Agnew, CEO of Anew Mission

"Anthea is an exceptional designer who takes the daily challenges of being a designer in her stride. She's one of the most dedicated designers I have ever managed and very considered in her approach to design execution whether working conceptually or within known constraints. She has an incredible eye for the detail of every pixel and is fantastic at communicating her designs to peers and clients.
A logical UX approach is another strong aspect of Anthea's skillset and she's always hungry to learn/grow within the studio. She would be a huge asset to any creative environment."
