Hi, I’m Zac a Product and UX Designer from Auckland, New Zealand.
My journey started in architecture, where I earned a Master of Architecture (Honours) and spent several years at Context Architects as a digital specialist/architectural graduate tackling large-scale housing projects and building digital tools that made complex processes faster and clearer.
Along the way, I developed a housing delivery system that cut the design-to-consent phase from 17 months to just 6 weeks, developed a 1,000+ complex component architectural detail design system, and assisted in the development of a client portal to reduce ambiguity between architects and clients.
In 2025, I began teaching architecture at Auckland University of Technology, mentoring students in design thinking and digital workflows, and started collaborating with local businesses as a digital designer helping them elevate their online presence and visual communication.
I’m passionate about systems thinking, collaboration, and transforming complexity into simple, meaningful digital experiences.
