User Experience

The majority of my work has always had the end user's needs centered in my practice. Even in situations where I was taking on a front-end engineering role, my guiding principle has always been to maintain focus on the end user's experience. The following examples represent projects where my role was experience designer. Where I was directly contributing to existing feature sets or creating new ones based on stakeholder requirements. The following examples represent projects I had direct influence over and were integrated into the production environments.

• Pearson — Bronte Publishing

  

  Most of my work at Pearson centered around an internal eText authoring environment called "Bronte." As a result, the user experience work focused specifically on the publishing workflow and administration.
