About me

I'm a User Experience Design (UXD) freelancer based in Melbourne, Australia. I'm passionate about working with organisations to create highly usable and accessible web sites/applications. I have worked in the UX field since 2004 for a number of different organisations (see below). I offer a number of different UX services and am available for short term projects and longer contracts.

About User Experience Design (UXD)

The field of User Experience Design covers a wide range of skills including Information Architecture, interaction design, interface design, usability evaluation. At the core is:

  • user research - learning more about who your users are,

  • design - how the web application/site will be structured, the pages are laid out and how the applications will function, and

  • evaluation - testing whether the designs are easily used by users.
