I design, craft and create by using design thinking to discover and deliver innovative solutions. Making lush things is what I do best.

Profile

Hi there! I’m Siân, an experience designer from Glastonbury, the home of the largest greenfield music festival in the world. I graduated in graphic design (BA (Hons)) at Nottingham Trent University and more recently, Digital Experience Design (MA) at Hyper Island, Manchester. I’ve worked as a designer in those fields since 2010. After working in both agencies and businesses across the UK, I am currently interning as a Product Designer at Spotify, London. 

​

I’ve worked across both print and digital throughout my career and the master’s course has enabled me to change my focus to the user experience side of design, where I use design thinking, human-centred design and agile methodologies to come up with solutions to address the needs of the people I’m designing for. My role as Product Designer sees me overlooking the end-to-end user journey for users looking to sign up to a Spotify Plan.

​

I am highly inquisitive about everything and my curiosity means I have an unrelenting thirst to explore. By working alongside talented and creative people, I gain inspiration and knowledge, which allows me to learn and grow as a designer. I love the thrill of the chase of keeping up with a constantly evolving industry and enjoy the new challenges it brings. When I'm not making ace user experiences, I like to turn my hands to other design disciplines. I’m passionate about arts and crafts and I build my own jewellery as a hobby in my spare time. Check out my Side Projects. You can also see some of my written work on Medium, where I discuss different aspects of design thinking.
