Head of Design
I studied Graphic Design at the University of Kent and started job hunting straight after graduating. I landed a three-month internship at Yellowball—and never left!
Hear from David
Over the years, I’ve grown with the team, developing my design and management skills and helping to shape our web design offering into what it is today. It’s been quite a journey, and I’ve loved being part of the company’s evolution.
Most chaotic/random thing on your desk right now?
Probably my screen setup—two big monitors (one landscape, one portrait), my MacBook Pro, an iPad Air, and an iPhone. It’s giving mission control vibes, but it’s perfect for productivity (and super handy for responsive design testing)!
If your vibe at work had a soundtrack, what song is track #1?
Not so much a song—more like an endless podcast series! When I’m deep in a large web design project, I like to stay in the zone with something to keep me focused. It’s usually either a comedy or true crime podcast, depending on my mood. The longer the episode, the better!
If you had a superpower for work, what would it be?
Definitely mind reading! It would save so much time on feedback rounds—just imagine nailing the first proof every time without any of the vague comments or back-and-forth. Dream scenario for any designer.
What emoji do you use way too much?
The ‘OK hand’ emoji 👌 — I use it for everything! Giving postitive feedback on a design, confirming I’ve understood a task, or just dropping a bit of light sarcasm, it somehow always fits.
