I’m Christine (she/her) and I am Programme Leader for BSc (Hons) Web & User Experience Design at the School of Digital Arts (SODA) and a multidisciplinary designer.
I have worked in higher education since 2019, and have a PGCE and Fellowship of HE (FHEA). At SODA, I teach across the Web & User Experience, Digital User Experience, and Creative Digital Design degree programmes. I embed industry practices into my teaching to prepare students and apprentices for the creative and digital sectors.
Before I moved into higher education, I worked in industry across the disciplines of user experience, digital media, and graphic design. I spent a large part of my career as a UX practitioner at the BBC. Here, I worked on different products, including Sport, Homepage, Interactive TV, Bitesize, and R&D (Research & Development). I led and collaborated on a variety of projects, using design thinking, user research, and problem-solving methods.
