Chris Wilson,
Founder of Stckmn
A creative problem solver through and through.
Over the years I've helped businesses small and huge reach their goals through impactful design and content. Come to me with a business problem, and I'll work my socks off to help you solve it — with your users always front of mind.
​
I undertake freelance on a project by project basis. If I am unavailable or don't have the right skills, I will recommend you some amazing creatives who do.
The longer story
Born and bred in Glasgow, I bounced into the industry in the early 2010's, cutting my teeth working in packaging design and branding.
A love of making design usable, as well as beautiful, led me to the natural fit of Product and UX design. Enjoying life product-side at Phlo, where our design improves patients' lives and brings real change for clinicians in digital prescribing.
From 2014 to 2021, I worked at a strategic brand agency, MadeBrave®. From designer to senior designer, and UX Design Lead. It's fair to say we both had accelerated growth. Together, we've worked on many amazing projects from branding to film productions. We won creative awards for projects that I lead with a brilliant team.
In 2017, I was delighted to be nominated for Rising Creative Star, Marketing Society Star Awards.
​
I lead in digital creative, specialising in UX & UI design. I looked after clients' brands from start to finish, making sure that their digital presence is representative of who they are and what they stand for while achieving their user needs and business goals.
​
I love helping people in any capacity, and likewise, I love learning from people too.

Easy to spot due to my masses of untameable curls, you'll usually find me with headphones nestled in my hair. Discovering new music to binge is a joy. My work friends say I'm fuelled by sugar, and they're not wrong. Working hard needs to be balanced by plenty of play.
​
My partner is a talented illustrator and drone pilot. Indeed, we spend a lot of time at the computer — but at least we can sit together. When not working away we're usually off festivalling, playing VR games or watching Ru Paul's Drag race like it's the Fifa world cup.
