Hey, I'm Ben. I've spent years designing complex financial platforms from core systems to customer-facing apps and financial consultant tools. What that really means is, I'm great at solving tough challenges, no matter which industry.

Currently a Senior Product Designer at Manulife in Singapore. Former designer at Singlife, Prudential and FWD. Educated at RMIT, certified by GA and NN/g.

Why I design ❤️ — I'm passionate about designing and building products that make people's lives better, even in small ways. I love pushing boundaries to create new and meaningful experiences, always striving to improve on what's already there.

How I work 💡 — I'm fueled by tackling tough challenges and collaborating to bring ideas to life.

My expertise spans user research, shaping product strategies, crafting functional and aesthetic interfaces, building engaging prototypes, design operations, and of recent managing design teams. I'm also really enthusiastic about establishing and maintaining design systems.

In recent years, I've also stepped into leading and managing design teams, both locally and remotely.
