Hi. I'm John.
I'm a product designer with an engineer's instincts, based in London. I've spent ten years in design, the last seven in product. I design the product and direct the front-end build, so less gets lost between the design and what ships.
Right now I'm at Episode, working out how people should work with an agent that builds landing pages. AI is part of how I work, and I've written about how I design with AI.
Have a question about my work? , or say hello by email. My CV is here as a PDF or Word file.

About me
I trained as an electrical engineer in Benin City and now design in London. When I’m not designing, I’m usually hosting something, on a tennis court, or boarding a flight.
Need a designer who can also build the thing? Let’s talk.

A note from John
Hey, you got all six.
Thank you for taking the long way round. A portfolio is usually a quick look at the work, so it means a lot that you stayed to watch the flights, play the music and ask me questions.
If any of it sparked something (a role, a project, a games night in your city), write to me. I’d love to hear what brought you here.
