When people say ‘We need John here for this’, that’s as good a sign as any that you’re valued.
You’ve brought clarity from ambiguity, and I have learnt to trust that you’ll just handle it.
While everyone has knowledge, not everyone knows how to design, but John is able to break it down to smaller concepts and invite everyone with knowledge to think creatively.
Let's make something good.

Of Work.
Hi, I'm
John.
Currently at MYOB building practice management software for accounting firms across Australia and New Zealand. Background in mechanical engineering and industrial design, which makes systems thinking feel natural rather than learned. I work across the full design process from discovery and research through to hi-fi delivery, and I find the most interesting problems are the ones that span multiple teams and have no clear owner.
I use AI as a core part of how I work. Not as a shortcut, as a tool I have learned to use well across research synthesis, prototyping, asset creation, and workflow. I am often the only designer on a team, which means I present to leadership, make calls without much cover, and have learned to move quickly without losing rigour.
Outside of design I make and DJ electronic music under the name Chamberlain. Original music performed at festivals across Australia, New Zealand, and the Americas. Nine years of releasing music, managing the commercial side independently, and sustaining creative output alongside a design career.
