Working with me
Location does not matter
I have clients worldwide, and there shouldn't be an issue as long as communication is good and consistent. I use apps like GitHub Projects, Airtable, Miro, Zoom and Microsoft Teams to manage projects.
Web design is not just about looking pretty...
Coming from a graphic design and web design background, I like to focus on a good user experience that includes frequently evaluating and optimising store page speed.
I follow Baymard Institutes UX best practices and refer to their research data on every ecommerce web design project. And I also use tools like UsabilityHub and HotJar to back up my design ideas.
Designing for the web, not only involves creating a useful website but is about creating an experience that helps to engage the target audience and increase sales and conversion.
Every element of the website is analysed for performance:- whether it's in the correct location and if the user understands how it works or where to find it and whether it makes sense.
Honest, trustworthy and professional
I still work with the same clients today that I worked with over ten years ago. I believe in keeping good relationships with all clients and completing all projects honestly and professionally to the highest standards.
