Bio
Peter Young
I had the pleasure of working closely with Brenton in his role as our Head of Design at Amber. He’s an exceptional designer who was integral in maturing and growing our product and brand. Brenton brings an amazing combination of creativity, focus and empathy to his craft and played a key role across just about every aspect of our product process. Ranging from strategy, research, prototyping and interviewing through to workshopping, detailed design work and upholding the quality and effectiveness of our product design team, I relied heavily on Brenton’s leadership and experience. Brenton is not only an outstanding designer but also a team player who fosters collaboration. His clear communication and willingness to listen to input from everyone he worked with made collaborating with him a real pleasure. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Brenton for any role he would choose to pursue and am certain he would be an asset to any team.

Brenton is a talented, pragmatic designer and even better team mate. I initially met Brenton on a collaborative project and was instantly impressed with his ability to uncover requirements, build a clear brief and execute high quality work. Since then, and over a number of years, I have teamed up with Brenton across multiple projects all delivered to a very high standard. If I ever have the opportunity to recruit or refer Brenton, I do so without thought. Above all, the most appealing parts of working with Brenton are: a) how he considers design as a system to help enable teams to move faster b) a genuine team player, problem solver and collaborator.
