About me

Alreet! I’m Andrew Taws, a UX Product designer from Newcastle. I’m passionate about creating products that are not only nice to look at but also accessible to everyone. I do this by following industry standards such as WCAG to make sure that the products are accessible.


Currently, I am the Lead UX/UI Product designer at Recite Me, where I am responsible for designing user interfaces for a range of digital products. In my role, I collaborate closely with other designers, and developers to ensure that our products meet the needs of our users. I also work on user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity mockups to create intuitive, user-friendly designs that help our users achieve their goals.


Before my current role, I worked as a designer at Changing Health, a Type 2 Diabetes healthcare startup. Here I worked closely with user researchers to conduct user interviews and usability testing.


When I'm not designing I can usually be found listening to music (From Ozzy to Fleetwood Mac), to going on long walks and watching F1.
