About Habanero Digital Ltd Product Design company in United Kingdom, United Kingdom
Im mostly a designer. I also write blogs animate graphics and develop websites but it would fair to say that I usually do these things to service my interest in design. I dont have a special or unique origin story – I wasnt fingerpainting interfaces as a child or whatever. An interest in dumb internet cartoons meant I illegally downloaded Flash and Photoshop in my early teens and spent more time messing around on them than I should have. At least until I was invited out to underage drink in parks which is likely the reason I decided a degree in art would be worth pursuing.
I attended one presentation where it was revealed youd need to attend a year-long college course just to produce the required material to even apply. So I opted for the art equivalent of a media studies degree at university over anything as lofty as a vis comms qualification from an art school that keeps burning down. Luckily for me there were plenty of art fundamentals like life drawing in this course so I didnt miss out on the opportunity to study a middle-aged mans naked body once a week. Like many graduates I left profoundly distrustful of high-level education and completely unprepared for any job in the real world.
But I got one anyway. And for 3 years I swam not sank at a couple of agencies producing work for small businesses and local authorities and then digital products for international cinemas mostly in the US. One bad few months later and I decided to go out on my own freelancing for anyone and everyone managing my own clients and making my own hours. This lasted around 4 years where – now free from agencies determining my worth – I was able to afford a wedding and a house and start a family.
With mouths to feed Im now back to full-time work. Dont let the irresponsibility of my youth fool you I can demonstrate through my work an aptitude for carefully considered detail problem solving and forward planning. My generalism speaks to a desire to overlap in skills and empathise with my coworkers as well as my ability to learn new things quickly. If youre looking to work with an experienced product designer with a strong work ethic but also a sense of humour then lets talk.
