I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes websites, landing pages, web apps, screenshots and copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background as a startup founder and full stack developer helps me create practical design solutions that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort and performance. I work to fixed price quotes when projects are self-contained.

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://www.checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO, speed and performance problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

I can help pay down and avoid incurring technical debt by designing systems that scale, future-proofing, or retrofitting existing tooling. We can work together to build solutions that are robust enough to scale along side your growing business needs and simple enough to be managed by a lean feature-oriented development team.

I have experience meeting stringent requirements in highly regulated industries such as 3 letter agencies, healthcare, and satellite tech; in all size business from early stage startups to large enterprises.

I've dealt with everything from low-level protocol issues to orchestration tooling to large distributed applications; improving up processes, automating tasks, and generally improving quality of life.
