G'day, I'm JustinCuriousHumbleHelpful

I’m a multi-disciplined problem solver with a passion for digital product design. I approach every design challenge with a ‘big picture’ view before diving into the details, leading my teams to design market-leading solutions to some of my client’s most challenging problems.

My Superpowers

Getting up to speed

I can quickly get across a lot of information and understand complex problem spaces to prioritise my focus.

Building strong relationships

I easily connect, collaborate and build rapport with my clients and team members to build robust working relationships.

Slide & workshop wizardry

I’ve been called a ‘slide wizard’ because I can whip up the perfect exec-level pack or co-design workshop to get ideas flowing.

AI-assisted workflows

I outsource suitable tasks to the bots whenever feasible so I can deliver a greater impact in the areas that matter most.

Drawing on my consulting background I combine my experience in Creative, UX & Service Design, with Business Analysis and Project Management to explore problems from different angles, before delivering a tailored set of recommendations based on every client’s specific set of goals and challenges.

Fun facts

  • Got sponsored into Australia with my UX chops
  • Helped 2 startups secure funding with rapid prototypes
  • Created a brand that sold products on Amazon in the USA
  • Wrote a UX course for Deloitte Digital, and delivered it to the CSIRO
  • Hosted and spoke at panel discussions for Deloitte Digital and Woolworths
  • My articles were featured in UX Planet & UX Collective on Medium a few times

From practical design delivery to ambitious future-state visioning, I have been fortunate enough to work across various industries with some of the world’s (and Australia’s) favorite brands and best tech teams.

On all of my projects, I work closely with SMEs, stakeholders, and stream leads to rapidly understand the problem space and co-design desirable, feasible, and viable solutions that push the status quo and help organisations to compete in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

As a Product Design Lead, I spend the majority of my time on the tools – planning and running client workshops, research or collaborating on UI designs and user flows. Fostering high-performing and positive team culture where each member can deliver their best work is what I strive for every day.

Aside from day to day delivery work, I enjoy getting involved in team initiatives like design critique sessions, developing training materials, or hosting panel discussions.

My clients thank me for the high standard of work I deliver, and the energy I bring to every meeting – whether it’s a fun fact of the day or the get-it-done attitude that ensures all actions are closed out and the projects’ momentum is maintained.

This site is a collection of some of my favourite projects. Have a look around, and if you’d like to work together feel free to get in touch via LinkedIn.
