About
I’m an interaction designer and front of the front-end developer. I do UX Things by day. I’m keenly interested in modular design, accessibility, usability, performance and the open web.
I’ve been employed doing some form of web-based design since 1996, and for the last two decades have been working in the enterprise space.
Highlights include
(permalink)- Designing complex end-to-end enterprise workflow systems
- Designing interactions, including copy
- Mentoring designers and developers on the importance and practical application of accessibility
- Mentoring designers to better understand CSS, coding in general, and the use of DevTools in troubleshooting design
- Always explaining design decisions, other options considered and trade-offs
- Rapid prototyping to share early and often
- Prototyping with HTML and CSS
- Performing code reviews that also address design
- Creating and maintaining best practices and standards for UI patterns and accessibility
- Co-creating front-end development training for fullstack developers
I design in the browser and think prototyping is best way to elicit feedback, answer questions and make design decisions. I write modern vanilla CSS and follow the principles of CUBE CSS. I also love making websites, especially with Eleventy!
This site is focused on my side projects and whatever I’m learning at the moment. I also have a blog.
I don’t currently have a portfolio, but if you’re interested you can view my LinkedIn profile, which admittedly could use an update.
If you think I can be of help with a project, or you’re looking to hire someone with my skills, don’t hesitate to get in touch!
