Why me?
❌ Contractor ✅ Collaborator
I prioritize long term partnerships with the founders I work with. My role as a user experience consultant is to see your business succeed, not just to throw deliverables over the wall. And I only work with 2 clients at a time so your project is always a priority.
Clear, transparent communication
Some people hire ux designers and only ever speak over email. That's not me. We'll have weekly calls to review designs, I'll set up a Slack channel to share questions and ideas, and I'll share async Loom videos to make sure you're in the loop at every step of the process.
Design that moves the needle (& looks great)
As a freelance product manager & designer I'm focused on not just crafting a beautiful and intuitive product, but also optimizing it to suit the needs of your business and deliver results.
Developer-ready designs
In order to provide my UX services I always prioritize close collaboration with your development team, and the designs I deliver will be based on an in-depth understanding of your product's technical constraints.
