I'm a principal product designer/builder, consultant and founder working remotely in Atlanta, GA, (previously San Francisco and Berkeley, CA).
IF YOU... -have a dev team that needs design support -are frustrated with UX strategists who leave you hanging when it's time for implementation -see pitfalls in the split between design & engineering -want to learn a better way to design, build & test your product -are not afraid to shake things up if it means your team can ship something awesome every time...
...we should talk.
I craft UX and frontend design in the browser. Your dev team will receive clean, shippable markup & CSS that's ready to be wired up. Because handing off pretty pictures for others to build is not my style.css ;)
Frontend efficiency is only one part of a well tested process of product creation.
1) UX begins with object modeling via "Object Oriented UX" methodologies to untangle domain complexity and establish a prototype data model. "Jobs to be Done" analysis establishes users' requirements.
2) Next we'll rapidly iterate the product concept by designing in the browser and testing to get feedback from users and stakeholders. Lessons gained from each iteration inform our goals for the next.
3) Each cycle is a step forward in all aspects of design: functionality as well as aesthetics and code quality. We'll call the iteration "final" when we've reached an optimal user experience written in code that's ready to ship.
Sound intriguing? I've been doing this for over ten years and it works. If it resonates with you, let's have a chat!
