Hello my name is Kym.

I'm a multidisciplinary designer who thrives off identifying real user problems and crafting desirable end-to-end solutions. I use a lean human-centred approach to rapidly get concepts out in front of real users and refine them into seamless experiences.

Coming from a visual design and front-end background, I value the importance of collaboration with engineers and key stakeholders to ensure designs are not only feasible, but viable for the business.
