Design Systems Lead at Trustpilot
“He's a fantastic designer, very technically savvy, a self-driven natural leader, and can consistently deliver high-quality and thoughtful work. He’s also genuinely passionate about his work, great at receiving and incorporating feedback, and very strategic in his thinking, always considering the bigger picture and long-term goals. I really enjoyed working with him.”

“Bryan was the backbone of our design systems team. His meticulous eye for detail, his systems thinking, his frontend understanding and his UI design skills all contributed to the quality of the design system. His calm, his will to collaborate, and his organisation made it possible. I'd be delighted to work with Bryan again any time.”
Mads Godvin Jensen

Alexandre Navarro Caldeira

Working with Bryan was a pleasure and a privilege.”
Jen Bayne
Design Lead at Trustpilot
“His background in both development and design gives him a unique set of skills and as a result, his work was consistently high quality and incredibly well thought through. Thoughtful and curious, Bryan is a natural communicator and collaborator who strives for the best for his team and the company. I’d love to work with Bryan again in the future.”
Lachlann Rattray

His work was of a very high standard and he was always keen to learn and put into practice new techniques and tools. Bryan is great to work with and he fit well into the team, working alongside the design and back end development teams to deliver great user experiences to a deadline.”
Greg Herd

“He picked up the work for us handling print and graphic design for UK jobs quickly and under difficult circumstances. Since then he has excelled at fulfilling each brief we give him and delivery on time, often significantly ahead of any deadline set too.”
Stephen Bell
3D Artist / Asset Lead at Interference Pattern
“Bryan's graphic design work for [our event] is always to a high standard, and delivered punctually. Additionally, he has never shied away from taking on additional roles in the organisational process, both within and outwith his area of expertise. He is a pleasure to work with, and I would feel no hesitation in recommending him to others.”
When I'm not at my desk, you'll find me exploring somewhere new with my camera or training for my next marathon.
