I really have no idea about spiders but this didn't seem to match any of the photos on nature map in jumping and peacocks or other hunting spiders which is where I would most expect it to fit as it didn't seem to have a Web. Photos taken on my kitchen cupboard.

It sure is a hunting spider; here's some links to other sources with photos and descriptions on the genus:

For now I'll keep the ID as Oxyopes sp. because we don't have any under species yet, but I'll take a closer look at what species the individuals under Oxyopes could be and try to ID them: adding in species will be something that can be improved in the future!
