About
IA & UX designer
Over 10 years of experience designing and building the front ends of websites, including: conducting face-to-face interviews, surveys, user testing, working with personas, paper prototyping, building site maps and wireframing. Between 2005 and 2008 I was senior web designer at a fitness instructor training company, where I lead a team of two designers. The remainder of the time I’ve been a freelancer, working variously in house, in agency and directly with clients.
Philosophy
I’ve always loved interactive aspect of web site design, wishing to ensure interfaces both work well and look great. I like to first understand the requirements, then plan an interface that works effectively, and then deliver a great looking product.
