Before this, I spent several years working on mobile app design beginning at the launch of the Apple App Store. I strive towards instilling simplicity, solid communication, validation, and trust, in sophisticated experiences that can often be bewildering and unclear for users. I believe that in designing Bitcoin and traditional retail trading and investment products, especially on mobile, it has been an acceptable practice to realise experiences that give rise to lapses in discipline, appeal to impulse, and narrow our perspective of the markets we trade.
