After contracting as a front-end developer in London, and writing code for the front page of BBC News, Charlie is now happily working as a senior FED for Springer Nature in Berlin.
There she helps make the world of scientific publishing a better place by constructing design systems, banging on about inclusive design, and utilising those wonderful web standards.
