Senior Designer (UI, UX, Front-End Development) and Team Lead with over a decade of experience.
I build value through design. I don’t just advocate the user, but also the team that has to build, support and scale the product. Learn more about my ethos &amp; values at: <a href="
I’ve designed and developed for the web (desktop, mobile, responsive), native apps (desktop/mobile), games and VR/AR. View my portfolio at: <a href="
As a designer; as I’ve matured I’ve spent an increasing amount of time ‘measuring’ before ‘cutting’. Product-market fit is as important to me as pretty pixels.
I consider user research, clarifying technical requirements, benchmarking competitors, sketches, rapid prototyping, writing product specs etc. to be a part of the design process. Depending on the team and product I can also operate as a Product Manager/PM.
As a team lead I’ve hired, managed and mentored, often remotely.
Outside of core product design I also love product marketing; connecting the dots between users and business requirements. Some ways I’ve made that happen include:  
* Designing for growth. Designed &amp; implemented a viral mechanic for a pre-seed startup, increasing sign ups by a large factor. Shortly after the startup was accepted into YC.
 * Data-driven design. Improving retention by measuring, tweaking and multivariate testing.
* Content marketing. Writing on-voice, on-product, on-market blog posts and newsletters that organically gain traction where they need to.
Above all, looking for great people to work with, but solving an interesting or fun problem doesn’t hurt either. ;)
