About Emily
After studying Computer Science in UCC, Ireland and working in iOS development, I worked as a content writer and UX designer in a digital agency in Edinburgh. From here, I specialised in conversational design, creating chat bots for clients like the Scottish Government and the NHS.
Now, I work as a research lead in a thriving design consulting team of over 30 practitioners. I am an active member of the Design Justice Network, and have a passion for ethical and inclusive design practices.
I have hosted workshops and talks about these topics at venues like the Scottish National Gallery and EICC.
