Temi has never been great at talking in the third person ٭

At Blinkist, I built the design organisation from the ground up and helped shape a recognisable, well-loved brand that earned a Google Material Design Award and multiple Apple features.

I later worked on Shop at Shopify across Growth and Merchant product areas, and went on to lead Product Design in the shopping and retail ads space at Instagram. Most recently, I led Design at Hive, working on commerce operations that support independent merchants as they scale.

Across my career, I’ve centred my work on strong craft, thoughtful decision-making, and a systems-led approach to how products and teams evolve. I care about building foundations that last, while giving teams the clarity they need to make purposeful day-to-day decisions.

Outside of work, you'll find me on an early run, handbuilding pottery, or wandering a gallery.
