Developer + IA + UX
After 25 years in IA and UX design, I'm returning to my roots in software development—bringing a unique combination of technical skills and a user-first mindset. Here's how my pivot adds value to you and your projects:
- User-Centered Development
My IA and UX experience means I code with the user in mind—building products that are not only functional but also intuitive and accessible. - Enhanced Collaboration
With years of cross-functional teamwork, I bridge the gap between designers and developers, ensuring seamless communication and alignment throughout the project. - Holistic Approach
I see the big picture. I don't just write code—I design solutions that align with user needs and the overall product vision, optimizing both performance and experience. - Faster Iteration
My background in prototyping and testing ensures rapid feedback cycles and more efficient development, resulting in higher-quality, user-approved products.
What I Bring
I'm a developer with a deep understanding of user experience, capable of creating products that are both technically robust and delightful to use. I leverage my full skill set to help teams build better, customer-focused solutions.
