EXPERTISE
Business Objectives
Typical questions would be what are the goals of the project and how will we know when we have been successful?
User Research
Here we aim to figure out how users behave - understanding behaviour and empathising is crucial to designing great experiences.
Content Strategy
This ensures that information provided is current, relevant and useful for the end users.
Information Architecture
Review the structure and navigation to ensure users can accomplish tasks and find information easily.
Interaction Design
The process for focusing on creating engaging interfaces with logical behaviours and actions. It's how the user will interact with the product.
User Interface Design
The styling of the interface with a focus on maximising usability and the user experience.
Where creativity and technology converge
I've worked on a large number of projects that have required a range of digital skills including graphic design, video/audio editing through to animation, for delivery on anything from Interactive TV, to Touch Screen kiosks, to websites and mobile phones.
Visual Design
I can generate high-quality digital graphics and animation using industry standard tools such as Adobe Photoshop CC.
Layout Design
I can design and create prototypes/mock-ups with page flows using design and interaction tools such as Hot Gloo, Figma and Axure.
Test and Iterate
Through a process of iteration corrections and improvements can be made incrementally to enhance the user experience.
Improve Existing Designs
Working with an existing UI I can make suggestions for design improvements and implement any approved changes.
Development & Implementation
I have a strong skillset in the three pillars of client side development - HTML, CSS and JavaScript - having been at the coal face of building websites for over two decades.
HTML Mark-up
HTML provides the structure, semantic meaning and content to a website or application.
CSS Styling
CSS is the paint and wallpaper to the bricks and mortar of HTML - it's how we make the interface look.
JavaScript
JavaScript enhances the interface with behaviours, interactions and effects to provide a richer user experience.
Frameworks
Frameworks provide pre-written JavaScript code for routine features and tasks for the rapid development of applications.
