My skills and expertise

I design in Figma, from early wireframes through to polished UI and clickable prototypes, with a clean handover to your developers. I'm used to working with remote teams over Slack, Zoom, Teams, Jira and Trello.


01

UI design

Modern, clean interfaces for iOS, Android and the web that are easy to use and good to look at.

02

UX design

User flows and wireframes so your app feels simple and familiar, and users never get stuck.

03

Prototyping

Clickable Figma prototypes to test on your phone, show investors or put in front of real users.

04

Design consultancy

An honest UX review of your app or website, with a clear plan for improving it.

About me

I'm Mike, a freelance product designer based in Brisbane, Queensland. I've spent over 20 years designing clean, modern iOS and Android apps, web apps, SaaS platforms and responsive websites for startups and digital businesses. When I'm not working with clients I'm usually building my own projects or writing books.

Testimonials

“I’ve worked with designers for almost 30 years and I’ve dealt with all types and I would only recommend one that I am confident would not let the next person down. The work Mike did for us was impressive and he made the process work exactly as we needed. I strongly recommend him and I’m confident you’ll get the result you need, in good time and without having to explain everything.”

Patrick Culbert Founder, Mailopoly

“We turned to Mike to design a premium user experience for StayOne, a luxury holiday rental site, and were delighted with the results. He meshed well with our product team and engineers, grasping the brand and commercial objectives quickly, and producing a well-organised design system that set us up well for future product development.”

William Medling CTO, StayOne

“We had the pleasure of working with Mike for several years, during which he consistently impressed us with the quality of his UX and front-end design work. He has a great ability to quickly understand requirements and translate them into clean, intuitive, and highly effective designs. Mike worked at pace, communicated well throughout projects, and always delivered to a very high standard. His work played an important role in shaping the front-end experience of our products, and we would highly recommend him to any business looking for a talented and reliable UX designer.”

Tessa Lee Managing Director, Moneyinfo

“Working with Mike was a real pleasure for my team and me. His work is top notch and he moves quickly through understanding a project to initial designs and incorporates suggestions quickly and efficiently throughout the design process. We will continue to work with Mike on future projects and have already recommended him to others.”

David Gengler Co-Founder & President, Nokē

“Professionalism and skill are hard to find in consultants for startups. Mike has both. He provided high quality designs, to spec, on time and within budget. I could not ask for more.”

Phil Lawlor Founder, Sling
