Hi, I’m Matt.
The combination of a successful 20-year career in education and my work in UX research and design will bring a unique and valuable perspective to your business.
I would love to help you accomplish your goals by creating meaningful user experiences.
My Approach
Research
Every project begins with understanding the problem.
I enjoy live interviews as much as possible in the form of directed storytelling to do my research. I love getting to the heart of issues so that the big picture can always remain in the forefront of the project.
Collaborate
I believe in the power of collaboration to improve the user experience of apps and websites.
As an extension of your team, I immerse myself in your vision and goals. I work closely with you and your teams to improve and develop existing websites and apps so that they not only reflect your brand but exceed your expectations.
Communicate
Healthy communication is important to any project.
Throughout assignments I actively seek out critique and feedback to make effective progress. Providing update reports or making presentations is a skill of mine that I look forward to.
