I enjoy solving problems.

Hi, I’m Taylor.
I’m a UX & Product Designer in Edinburgh, Scotland.
I specialize in designing intuitive interfaces and systems that support creative work and complex tools. Originally from California, I’ve been living in Europe since 2019, first in Amsterdam, then in Lyon, before settling down in the UK. I love art, music, food, and culture, and I enjoy learning about and sharing these experiences with others.
Professional
I have a background and education in both design and development. I’ve been working in tech since 1999 and in games since 2010. My experience spans AAA games, creative tools, internal systems, and earlier work in advertising and agencies. I’m comfortable moving between tools and pipelines, and I can meet teams and team members where they are, whether they’re artists, designers, engineers, producers, or managers.
I’m confident in both my hard and soft skills, from prototyping and implementation to communication, documentation, and team collaboration. I enjoy solving complex problems in multi-disciplinary teams. I work best collaboratively, but I’m also comfortable leading initiatives and working independently when needed.
Personal
Outside of work, I like making things. This includes drawing, painting, photography, and hands-on craft projects such as quilting, knitting, and rug tufting. I also enjoy experimenting with new tech and tools.
I’m a long-time fan of indie games and the dev communities that form around them. I appreciate the creativity, exploration, and care that go into small-team projects, as well as the space they leave for experimentation and expression.
Since moving to Europe, I’ve become a fan of rugby and F1 racing, not just for the competition, but as a lens for understanding teamwork, communication, and leadership under pressure.
