I designed and developed the Divvy web app to simplify splitting expenses between friends — without the need to sign up for a service or set up accounts.

Add the expenses for each person and Divvy will calculate the most efficient sequence of repayments.

Scrunch

Scrunch was an early player in the influencer marketing space, where we sought to rapidly build out a product that enabled brands to find and engage with influencers and to run marketing campaigns.

As the lead UX/UI designer, I worked with a small team to design and build their data-driven platform from the ground up. I also designed and developed the Scrunch landing page and blog.

Very Usable Icon Library

The Very Usable Icon Library is a free to use component library for Figma with over 550 icons. Some features of this library are:

  • Tagged/alternative icon names for easy searching
  • Categorised groups for browsing
  • Flattened, uniform layers so colour overrides are preserved when switching icon instances
  • 2 size variants (18px and 12px) but also scalable
  • Sharp rendering on low density displays
  • Optically balanced (to a degree) to create more uniform weight
