User-centred design using psychology and technology

Hi

I'm a Melbourne-based psychology and market researcher with a focus on health issues. I have a burning passion for web and app design and development and believe that the future of health intervention is in the hand of technology.

My curiousity and life-long interest in learning have always been the driving forces in everything I do. Being a fast-learner and enjoying problem-solving, I'm lucky to have two of the most important skills to support my constant hunger for knowlege.
