I have a wide variety of user experience (UX) design consulting skills and experience gained whilst working on some high profile, groundbreaking projects.

With practical hands-on knowledge of front and back-end web/application development, I have a rare blend of complimentary skills which position me quite uniquely to be able to provide solid, insightful consulting input that will make a real difference to complex web/application based projects and greatly increase the likelihood of a successful project launching on time and within budget.

Potential consulting roles

Overall responsibility for all UX design considerations for a given project or range of projects
User testing implementation, reporting and resulting design enhancement recommendations
Usability expert review of existing sites/applications (a quick, low cost way to establish key opportunities for improvement)
Supporting design / development teams in terms of best practice usable design patterns and approaches
Managing creative input so that ground breaking approaches (where appropriate) can be applied, whilst maintaining the usability aspects of a design solution.
