Andy Baker
Senior Copywriter, Freelance
Evian is one of those rare designers who spans many design disciplines and is enthusiastic about getting stuck into everything. Such a lateral thinker, would be an asset to any organisation and the pride he takes in his work really shows. I've been in the industry a fair old time now but people like Evian keep me on my toes! There's always so much to learn and that's easy to forget if you don't have the right people in your team. I'd love to work with Evian again in the future.

Gess Puglielli
Head of Product, MPB
Ev is always fun to work with, bringing excellent UX insights gathered from his in-person user testing sessions, and was great support on the MPB design system, providing great feedback gathered from users on how the product was being used in the wild. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ev for anyone looking for a thorough, professional UX designer.
Jon Quayle
Visual &Ā Interaction Designer, MPB
I worked closely with Ev at MPB for the best part of 2 years. The first thing to say about Ev is his drive to 'do it for the customer' - everything he is about, is customer, customer, customer. Just what you need in a top level UX designer. His attention to detail is second to none and he has a real skill to get to the root of customer issues. We worked together on many projects, including the launch of MPB's platforms. The most exciting piece we worked together on was planning and developing a service design blueprint. This was a hugely important project for us and we had to start from scratch with it. The blueprint has been used across the business to identify process, people, product gaps.
Ev is the sort of person who brings good energy to the workplace. He is committed to doing the right thing, he is full of ideas about how to optimise products, and he is skilled in spinning many research, storytelling, problem solving plates.

T-Shaped Expertise and User-Centric Mindset
Hey there, I'm Ev - a UX Researcher with a passion for all things tech and learning new skills. I've often heard that if you look after your body your mind will follow. You'll usually find me sporting shorts and doing something active (ā here, I'm going outdoor bouldering), but when I'm not on the move, I'm addicted to podcasts - especially those focused on behavioural and health sciences. With a background in Medical Product Design, expertise in research methodologies, and 9 years in industry, I'm always up for a challenge and ready to build engaging experiences that delight users.
IĀ like to learn... Whether it's learning Python to get more from data science, tinkering with JS to write scripts, or exploring the endlessly fascinating world of AI and machine learning, I'm always looking for ways to expand my T-shaped expertise.
