Muibook
2025Muibook is the home of the MUI Design System (MichaelUI). Originally an experiment with native Web Components, it has evolved into a standalone library offering clean, composable patterns to help you write less code and build faster.
The site includes a Quick-start App • NPM Components • AI-powered Playground • Figma UI Kit • Themeable Tokens • Technical Documentation • Coded Components with Embedded Accessibility • UX Guidelines powered by Guru Guides
Virtual Card
2021At Airwallex, I prototyped a CodePen using mesh gradients and looping transitions to make virtual cards more dynamic than physical ones, creating an ever-shifting digital aesthetic.
More recently, I built a web component called Smart Card found in the Muibook Design System that represents digital and physical cards for payments and reward experiences.
Guru Guides
2025Guru Guides is a free tool that helps teams document and share design system guidelines directly in Figma. It’s designed to increase engagement during the design process by reducing context switching and keeping guidance close at hand, so designers can stay focused and maintain consistency as teams scale.
Sensei
2024Sensei.study is an innovative Japanese language-learning app that helps you master real-life phrases through engaging lessons and authentic audio clips. It also explores the new light-dark CSS feature, offering both light and dark themes to match user preferences and improve readability across different lighting conditions.
MYOB Invoicing
2018Research has shown that quotes would be a useful feature for MYOB Invoicing to introduce. With the task of adding quotes to the current mobile application, there was an opportunity to review the workflow across Invoices also, so the work completed in quotes would need to be a holistic vision for the future experience of the MYOB Invoicing application.
Capture
2017The capture experience allows business owners to record and store their business-related expenses in a convenient and accessible digital format. By having this document available in the MYOB, the system enables their accountant to have access to all the information they need for the tax period.
Case Studies
2019I have recently created a new section on my website called Case Studies, where I showcase work from the past two years working at MYOB as a Senior Product Designer, and the thinking and processes involved.
Mobile Banking
2018When running a small business, there are some tasks a business owner is required to do, which helps with their tax compliance tasks. One of these tasks is reconciling their expenses to their bank transactions that come into their accounting system. To ensure the experience is an enjoyable and most efficient, the experience is designed to be less of a data-entry task, and more of a simple review.
On The Wrist
2016Receive timely reminders of incoming & outstanding payments, which allows businesses to keep an eye on their business health, without the overhead of being tied to their desk. This ease of mind enables the business owners to focus on more critical areas, which is running and ensuring their business is thriving.
Web Type
2015Ever since learning how to create online experiences with code, I have always been interested in how to apply typography to the web. This Codepen example is one of my explorations with responsive type on the web.
Served
2019Served is a mobile app that provides a new way of ordering and paying at restaurants. I explored the end-to-end experience of how a user would browse the restaurant menu, right through to settling the bill. With the inconvenience of Covid-19 for restaurants to operate as usual, I have recently explored how to enable this service to allow restaurants to have complete control of home deliveries.
Sights & Sounds
2015This site explores the sights and sounds of World War I before, during, and after the war. The client’s focus was to present the imagery, video, and audio in an exciting way. My objective was to let the content shine, so the design direction centered on a full-screen immersive video that takes over the page seamlessly.
Royalty
2014iOS loyalty coffee app that makes use of iBeacon technology, so leave your loyalty cards at home. I contributed to this project by directing the user experience through the use of wireframes and creating the overall design aesthetic.
Ngā Taonga
2015I lead the design & front-end to build a deserving mobile-first experience, which complements the vibrant content found within the walls at Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision.
iOS14 Public beta
2021My exploration improves the layout and functionality of the home screen widgets and increases the efficiency of accessing the App Library. The hypothesis is that integrating the 'App Library' into the 'Siri search' would be more familiar to a user, and faster to complete the intended task.
Pixel-Art
2019With the introduction of SVG images and high-resolution screens, pixel-art is not a required skill in web design anymore. However; my passion for pixel-art has continued and here is a Bladerunner inspired illustration I have created.
Time Capsule
2014Based on the user's location, they can view modern-day landmarks during different periods. My goal is to be more involved with the implementation of my designs for iOS, so I can make correct design adjustments that were needed during development.
