Almost 15 years ago I invested a small amount in a somewhat fanciful project to create a train service run by a co-operative. All these years later the ORR has finally given Go-Op permission to run an actual service. They just need to raise the capital to make it happen. go-op.coop

This year, my user-centred design career turned 21 – and I've worked at Cake for 16 years 🎉 . Cue a tidied up client list, and shiny new #projects portfolio, to give a flavour of the wonderfully varied informational #content and #UX design I've worked on across those years. #LateNightPortfolioDrop
