Tell a story.

Designing and conceptualising experiences that help engage people in and outside the realm of digital
Hi, I'm David
I’m an experience designer that believes in creating content-driven experiences. By creating worlds and telling stories, I want my audience to be able to step into my designs; to interact with them, and to connect their digital experiences with the physical world.
Product Designer by trade
I currently work at Australia’s oldest bank, Westpac, optimising customer journeys and making banking easier for millions of Australians
Always on a quest
I have a constant push to explore and learn something new, to test my limits and to see what new technology, place or experience I can add to my toolset
Curious by nature
Outside of work I build personal projects, learning to code mobile apps and daydreaming a future utopia at the crossroads of storytelling, technology and design
