Sutton Auckett 👋
Hello, I recently returned to the UK after living and working in New Zealand. I’ve worked in E-commerce with Master of Malt and at two SEO marketing agencies, where I learned how design and conversion rate optimisation go hand in hand. I enjoy collaborating within product teams and know how to delivering end-to-end projects. I studied Graphic Design and Photography at university, which still shapes how I think visually and approach design. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me trail running or cycling – I’m always up for a challenge.
