The Intersection of Human Behaviour & Intentional Design
Guided by a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a lifetime of creative practice, I build the structures and digital experiences that allow businesses to thrive.
Hi! I'm Jade and with a background in Psychology, my focus in creating and designing is always on the people. I’ve spent my life fascinated by the how and why behind human action. Today, I formalise that obsession through UX Design, ensuring that every touchpoint in your business is intuitive, meaningful, and seamless.
The Mindset
People-Led. Analysing user behaviour to create empathy-driven solutions.
The Method
UX-Focused. Building intuitive wireframes and high-fidelity digital interfaces.
The Movement
Operational Strategy. Designing the internal systems that sustain business growth.

From managing small business operations in corporate organisations, running my own successful small businesses to now formalising my design practice through an intensive 500+ hour UX immersion with the General Assembly, my experience is a blend of boots-on-the-ground strategy and high-level design thinking.
How I Work
My approach is collaborative, bespoke, and grounded in real-world operations. I don’t sell rigid frameworks or overnight transformations. Instead, I work in the business with you, applying human-centric insight, operational clarity, and UX-led design to help your business flow.
Think of me as a Strategic Partner, not a coach. I’m here to provide specific answers to specific problems, untangling the "how" so you can focus on the "why."
What that looks like in practice:
-
Strategic Architecture: Structured sessions to untangle ideas and set clear priorities.
-
UX Sprints: Short, focused design bursts to create immediate digital momentum.
-
Operational Deep Dives: Rebuilding the systems, structures, and planning that sustain you.
-
Studio Retainers: Ongoing, high-level support as an integrated member of your team..
Everything is tailored to what is actually achievable within the context of your capacity
No fluff, just the structure you need to feel clear-headed and confidently ahead of what’s next.
The Art Behind The Architecture
My art practice is inspired by the natural world and the emotional response colour and form can evoke. From bold, expressive paintings to more considered, textural pieces, I create contemporary art designed to help capture and hold moments long after they have passed.
Each piece is created with care and intention. Original artworks alongside small-batch and limited edition prints. My aim is to help you finding something that resonates, lifts a space, and feels like you.
From time to time, my sister, Paris also shares a small number of individual pieces through the studio too. They tend to be detailed, expressive works that appear in limited runs and often sell quickly so keep your eyes peeled. (Each listing details the artist for reference).
We are both originally from London, now living between Essex and Andalucía - with roots influenced by Irish and Caribbean heritage. Though separated by geography, we remain deeply connected through a shared love of creativity, colour and making things that feel good to live with.
Before Alma Cara Studio, I spent seven years building Bitesize Bakehouse from a kitchen-table experiment into an award-winning brand. From securing a Great Taste Award to navigating TV appearances and corporate collaborations, I did it all-the strategy, the digital launches, the operational logistics, and the "messy middle."
What started as a love letter to baking became my real-world masterclass in Business UX. Along the way, I realised my true "spark" wasn't just in the product itself, but in the architecture behind it.
I fell in love with:
-
System Design: Turning kitchen-table chaos into refined repeatable processes.
-
Problem Solving: Untangling the "impossible" to find the most efficient route forward.
-
User Journeys: Designing how people experience a brand, from first click to final delivery.
-
Strategic Clarity: Making big, overwhelming ideas feel manageable and achievable within the capacity at hand.
I’ve been where you are. I know what it feels like to move fast and juggle everything. Today, I use those hard earned insights to help you stop reacting to the chaos and make sure your business is designing for growth.
