Live example project: https://www.checkbot.io/
Location: Edinburgh, UK and remote (I’m used to time zone differences and async work)

I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, screenshots and copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background as a tech 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.

#3I keep a personal blog, and my articles often appears on HN. I commission custom cartoons for my blog posts.[0]
The blog’s previous cartoonist worked with me for six years. She recently changed careers, so I’m looking for someone who can take over as the blog’s official cartoonist.
I'll pay your hourly rate, but I'm aiming to pay about $75 per illustration on average.
