Hey there, I’m Pat!

I’m a Product Designer and previous Service Designer with 4.5 years of experience, turning complex enterprise problems in to revenue-generating, accessible, scalable and delightful design for companies such as Atlassian and Westpac Group.

Most recently, I’ve spent 3 years at Atlassian working in administration, driving designs focused on user access, security and usage insights. Previously at Westpac, I helped everyday Australians navigate their finances, understanding customer behaviours and roadmapping various strategies.

I enjoy designing to simply make people’s lives easier.

Other things I enjoy:

  • Film (shooting and watching)

  • Anything on Apple TV

  • Travelling

  • Hitting the beach

  • Concerts and festivals

  • Listening to whoever is on my Spotify Wrapped
