About Neil

ORIGIN STORY

I started out as a Nurse for 8 years at Coronary Care Unit and Cardiac Rehabilitation. Although I found the job rewarding it was lacking something I couldn't articulate.

Frustrated with time wasted conducting and documenting a 6-minute walk test (6MWT), I decided to build an app so I could focus more time on my patients. I taught myself how to code and design in my spare time which eventually resulted in 6MWT app.

I found that Coding and Design gave me creative freedom to solve a problem and potentially disrupt an industry.

I wanted to learn from the best cutting edge company with a big heart so I worked at ThoughtWorks as Frontend Developer (FED) and User Experience Designer (UX).

I consider my FED strengths in to be HTML, CSS (SCSS), Javascript (Typescript/Angular). I am a strong advocate for increasing confidence by writing tests and abstracting elements into reusable components. FYI I'm a self-confessed Ionic Fanboy.

I consider my UX strengths to be UI Design, Usability Testing, User interviews, Design Systems and Design Workshop facilitation. I am a strong advocate for baking in UX Methodologies from the start and thrive when I champion the UX processes within the team. I believe Design is a team sport and work best in a collaborative environment.

Ultimately, I have a passion for creating interactive applications that deliver delightful user experiences whether it's with code or design.
