Brand and Website Development for SK Polymers Just published a case study for Gamz — a social sports platform I designed end-to-end for iOS and Android.
The real challenge wasn't any single screen. It was making something feel effortless for casual players ("just let me find a game and play") while handling real complexity underneath — team management, league tables, fixtures, results, even the tools competition organisers need to run it all.
Mapped the player journey first, then built a design system that kept everything fast, bold, and consistent across the whole app.

Curious how others approach designing for two very different user types (players vs. organisers) in one product — what's worked for you? ParKiwi — from login to parked in seconds. Designed the full interaction flow for ParKiwi, a smart parking app for New Zealand.
This piece walks through the journey: login → find a spot → start parking → done. The goal was to make something inherently annoying feel completely effortless.
Every transition is built to keep drivers moving, not waiting. Made with Jitter. More motion coming soon.
ParKiwi is a smart parking app for New Zealand that lets drivers start and stop parking from their phone — and only pay for the time they actually use. The challenge was making something inherently annoying — paying for parking — feel effortless. We mapped how drivers actually park, then designed flows that remove the friction at every step: quick payment setup, live parking sessions, clear history, and transparent summaries showing zone, rate, and fees with no guesswork. By making the experience genuinely easy, we helped ParKiwi drive better payment compliance and a smoother experience for both drivers and operators. Handled end to end: user flows, high-fidelity UI, a scalable design system, and developer-ready handoff.
