Hi, i'm Hayley. I'm an Instructional Designer with UX training, designing for effective, simple and meaningful learning experiences.
I bring passion about designing curriculae for real users with student-centered, scalable solutions using LMS, authoring tools, learning materials and training delivery.

With over a decade of hands on experience as a classroom teacher and subject lead, I combine inquiry driven instructional design and curriculum design with human-centered UX principles, to create impactful experiences.
As a freelance designer I align your team’s onboarding and learning journey to ensure your company standards and practices and training is active, engaging and visible.
The result?
Confidence for your learners, clarity for your leaders,
and peace of mind for your business.
"Great design, like great teaching, meets people where they are, then dares them to go somewhere new."
Same craft, designing experiences where humans get to wonder, try, and grow. Just in a different space.
I have always been captivated by the power of storytelling and creative expression. Harnessing digital media with video, sound, and performance, I designed immersive experiences to deepen engagement and context.
This passion led me to deliver workshops across the North West, empowering adults and young people to explore their stories through creativity and connection.
Co-founding Minerva Arts creative outreach company solidified my love for meaningful engagement through delivering workshops, ultimately guiding my journey into teaching.
A decade of International teaching in language, primary years and as subject lead. My practice engaged cross curricular practice with a key focus on holistic engaging learning experiences.
I thrived in building student-centered Inquiry, organised chaos and the magic moment a student says, "wait, I get it now!" That's the moment I still chase as my practice expands.
If a great lesson and the right learning framework can change how my students think for life, what could a great product do?
Using digital design, I asked myself, what can I build to create lasting impact that effects meaningful growth?
This curiosity lit a drive to understand experience design further. I picked up Figma to find out more as I completed my Diploma in UX design.
I design learning experiences that tune into individual needs and SME insights, offering solutions with a practiced perspective, like a great teacher walking beside you, patient, curious, and deeply attuned to the challenges in buidling precise learning and onboarding journeys.
Using Qualified UX skills and a deep understanding after working with thousands of global students across continents, I ensure each experience evolves as an improved iteration of the last.
My designs are human-centered, tailored and deliver meaningful impact.
