Hi I'm Davina, a British born UX/UI designer, based on the sunny island of Malta. My passion lies in combining modern, clean and simple UX design with highly engaging and intuitive user interfaces.

 

With a creative background that began in Graphic Design, I have 15+ years of experience with designing apps and websites across several different industries including travel, education, e-commerce, igaming and forex. Each of these have shaped and strengthened my skills in creative innovation and design thinking.

UX and UI design is not just about creating pretty visual content, it’s about how it makes a person feel, and how they ultimately interact with the product. Through my research, user-flows, wireframes, visual design and interactive prototyping, I aim to solve complex usability challenges by creating optimal user experiences, that follow a forward-thinking and user-centered approach.
