I'm a Senior Product & Brand Designer with 7 years across fintech, B2B SaaS and health-tech; I design complex, high-stakes products end to end and then build many of them in code myself.

Most of my recent work lives at the intersection of design and AI-assisted development. I've been building and shipping live products with AI since mid-2025; and I've kept a steady cadence ever since, with new work going out most weeks. Full-stack apps with real users, dashboards, design systems and landing pages. That means what I hand over isn't a mockup waiting on a developer; it's often a finished, deployed product built with the same eye for craft I bring to every design decision.

My design foundation is deep. I've designed treasury and core banking systems for government and financial institutions, a compliance engine unifying multiple third-party APIs, clinical EMR dashboards validated with practising doctors, and a design system spanning an entire product suite. I care most about the hard, invisible parts; dense workflows, expert users, decisions where getting it wrong actually costs someone something.

I also lead design for FlutterBytes, recognised by Google as Africa's largest Flutter developer community; carrying brand, product and event design across every touchpoint.

Portfolio: design.headfavour.com

I'm a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Solution Architect and Chartered Accountant (ACA, ICAEW) based in the UK: a combination that lets me sit on both sides of a finance transformation, the system and the standards it has to honor.

I write bcforfinance.com, an ongoing series on IFRS in Business Central, translating IFRS 15, IFRS 16, IFRS18, IFRS 9 and IAS2 into practical BC configuration with real journal entries. I also speak on the Dynamics user-group circuit, including D365PPUG UK. There's very little finance-first BC architecture content out there, and closing that gap is the work I care most about.

Over 15+ years I've led finance transformations and full BC implementations across manufacturing, construction, financial services and asset finance, public sector and more. I design the accounting logic first, then the configuration, so the numbers are right from day one.

At Mercurius IT I've also architected in-house solutions for CIS, projects and construction, purchase requisitions and commitment accounting, often alongside ISVs like Continia, GYDE 365 and Jet Reports, Yavrio, EMBAT.
