HOW I CAN HELP
End-to-end design: Team lead or solo expert
I thrive both as a hands-on designer and as a team leader, guiding projects through every major phase of product design.
Aligning your team around a new product can be challenging, especially with multiple stakeholders. Describing your product with words alone can be limiting. I create detailed prototypes and product vision narratives that help align everyone involved.
Need to understand your users better and evaluate your product's UX?
If you're relying on assumptions about your users' needs or if you know your product's UX isn't hitting the mark but aren't sure how to improve it, I can assist. I conduct in-depth user research and thorough UX evaluations to guide your improvements.
Confident in your idea but need to validate its strength?
If you have a clear product vision but need assurance that it resonates with your target audience, I can help to validate your ideas with future users and minimize risks before further development.
Ready to begin development and in need of a design lead?
If you're set to start building and need an experienced designer to lead the UX efforts, I'm ready to join your agile team and help produce detailed, developer-ready designs.
