Portrait of Lachlan Paull

Sydney-based UX & product designer. At Thoughtworks: regulated flows for Teachers Health (quote & join, +20% completed joins), NSW Digital Birth Certificate (iOS & Android), and Carsales. Earlier: Australian Greens and USyd capstones. I focus on defensible decisions — research that actually shifts the work, plain language, and design systems that make consistency affordable.

MDes (Strategic Design, Design Leadership) and BDes Computing (Interaction Design), University of Sydney — Dean's List on both; capstone awards on both.
