About Me
You can call me Ri. I've spent over four years designing products that make sense of complexity, from sports data tools for ESPN and BBC to consumer apps. Always led by curiosity, I embrace human quirks and design for impact.

What Others Say
David Johnson
VP - Product Operations, Stats Perform
"I had the pleasure of working closely with Riana on several projects at Stats Perform, notably PressBox Live for Cricket and Opta Search. Riana possesses an exceptional ability to translate ideas into intuitive and user-friendly designs – she’s not just a designer but a true partner in product development. Riana was highly proactive in engaging with subject matter experts, gathering insights, and iterating on designs based on feedback. This was particularly crucial for our cricket product, as her efforts enabled the team to gain a deeper understanding of the sport. She consistently went the extra mile to ensure the product’s success, collaborating closely with me throughout the launch process. I wholeheartedly recommend Riana to any team seeking a product designer who not only excels in design but also grasps the broader context of product development."

"Riana was absolutely instrumental in designing a new tool from the ground up to replace something that needed urgent sunsetting. She ran the project from a design perspective and did a great job in learning a complex set of project specific nuances and requirements and turn them into a functional product design. The project required her to manage multiple different groups of stakeholders, with different expectations and needs, and she was brilliant in delivering the expect design while keeping everyone happy and achieving feature parity at a very early stage. She was calm and factual at all times and our team was very happy to work with her. I would absolutely recommend her as not only as a very creative and communicative designer but also as a great colleague."
