Human-Centered Design & Innovation
My skillset has been refined over nearly three decades working in Europe & Australia.
I have helped research, design, validate, pitch, plan, and deliver products and services for well over 150 brands, top-tier corporates, SMBs, not-for-profits, and start-ups.
I help businesses identify new opportunities and create outstanding product and service experiences.
I also offer mentoring services and have mentored hundreds of students in design Thinking for Innovation at RMIT University since 2020
Who I’ve worked with…
What people have said…
“A wonderful person to have in your team, because he self manages, is such a powerhouse in the theoretical as well as the practical and just knows how to get things done"
Liz Blink - Product Manager
“Neil's drive and persistence in getting stuff done was front and center. I'd work with Neil again in a flash. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, results-driven person who’s worked at the intersection of design and business, Neil would be great for hands-on or leadership/advisory roles.”
Mike Floyd - Service Design Lead, Austrade
“Neil is able to grasp problems in a holistic way and provides thorough, yet inventive solutions"
Manual Lima, ex-head of Google Cloud
“Neil has a depth of experience that isn’t common in this industry, which I believe makes anyone that’s hired him or working alongside him very fortunate.”
Richard Lipp, Experience Design Manager, Virgin Australia
