Daniel Steel
Product designer
I'm Daniel Steel, a freelance product designer with ten years of experience leading projects for clients such as British Gas, Vanguard, the University of Nottingham and E-on Next. I come from a development background and can work seamlessly with technical teams to create designs which are engaging, accessible and deliver impact. I specialise in designing mobile apps, dashboards and complex data visualisations.
I spend most of my time playing tennis or watching ice hockey when I'm not at work. I'm passionate about cooking and enjoy making Neapolitan pizza in my Ooni pizza oven.
