Laura is a Senior UX Consultant at Experience UX. She has spent the last 13 years in the digital industry, first as a Web Developer and eventually moving into User Experience Design, fuelled by a growing curiosity about the people she was creating products and services for.

Her passions are contextual research, systems thinking, and behavioural psychology. When she’s not immersed in experience design and spending time with her family, she can also be found reading, taming her garden, and playing the piano out of tune.
