Hi, I’m Matt.
I like people. That’s why I design things to help make their lives better.
I am a problem solver.
I am dedicated to using human-centred design to tackle problems big and small, and genuinely believe design can make the world better.

Makers Empire – Director of UX > Director of Customer Success
By effectively applying human-centered design principles I have helped build Makers Empire from a nascent app to the world’s most fun and easy to use 3D design program, used by elementary school students and teachers around the world to create around 100,000 designs every day.
Be Friendly – Director / Founder
I led my own interdisciplinary design studio, specializing in brand strategy, brand development, and ‘out-of-the-box’ projects; everything from business cards to shop fit-outs and street art festivals.
During this time I occasionally worked as a freelance Art Director for several advertising agencies.
Shane English School (Japan) – Teacher
I especially enjoyed working with younger students and developing learning materials to make their lessons more engaging and effective.
Happy House (Aus/South Korea) – Senior Designer
I designed consumer product lines for a global lifestyle brand with a huge following in South Korea. With our licensee in ROK, I managed every aspect of the production process.
