Specialises In (based on submitted proposals)
I am an experienced design and usability professional dedicated to helping companies develop excellent software products.
In my design practice I have developed an approach that balances team collaboration with focused concept refinement. This invariably leads to practical, yet elegant design solutions. I play a central role in consolidating diverse requirements and stakeholder inputs into coherent and polished user experiences.
With five years of agency experience I have helped dozens of teams solve problems in a variety of domains ranging from medicine to telecom.
As a committed user advocate, I help create products that:
…real people love to use.
…people understand.
…exceed people's expectations.
…save people time and companies money.
…have short learning curves and little to no training overhead.
These are some of the services I provide:
• Usability evaluations of existing products
• Requirements gathering and project scope definition
• Stakeholder and SME (Subject Matter Expert) interviews
• Rapid visualization
• Concept development, validation and refinement
• Task and scenario storyboarding
• Interaction design and prototyping
• Design documentation and development support
• Integration with functional groups (PM, QA, Dev, Visual Design)

More than Pretty & Usable: Getting the most from UX on product teams
45 Mins
Workshop
Intermediate
Collectively, User Experience (UX) practitioners offer many promises of improved user and customer experiences, so let's go "Get some UX" on our next project! …If only it was that simple.
There are two important things to consider. First, UX is not a single profession, rather, a cluster of areas of expertise, so you need to identify which ones are best suited to solve your unique problems. Second, these areas of expertise each need to be integrated differently on projects to make the most of them.
We'll go through an exercise in exploring facets of UX that may be new to some. Then we'll look at common design challenges, and the facets of UX best positioned to address them, and how they optimally fit in the product development process.
