\u00a0Hi, I’m Dexter, a senior designer with 8+ years experience as a UX\/UI contractor.<\/p>\n

Most recently I’ve been working client-side in cross-functional teams on B2B SaaS products for the likes of London Stock Exchange Group and Vodafone.<\/p>\n

Based in Brighton & Hove, I’m originally from Derby, then Leicester, where I kick-started my design journey over 15 years ago at a small agency specialising in exhibition displays before heading to London.<\/p>\n

Starting out in graphics, I gravitated towards digital and over the years I\u2019ve been privileged to work across a range of industries, from tech startups to multinationals.<\/span><\/p>\n

I love digging into a complex problem, love prototyping, and I’m all about the details.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
