“Chris and I worked together at iD Tech for nearly six years! During that time, he brought the coolest, calmest, most collaborative energy to any project we worked on together--always positive, always thoughtful. I also deeply appreciated how he stayed so on top of current UI/UX trends and shared his knowledge with me. This was incredibly useful to me as a copywriter and helped me level up my own work. He's the best of the best at what he does and it was honestly a pleasure to get to be on his team at iD.”
- Kendall Sallay, Sr. Copywriter at iD Tech Camps
“Chris stands out as one of the most talented UX Designers I have had the privilege to work with. His collaboration during our shared vision for the product was not only inspiring but pivotal in our successes. Chris combines a deep passion for impactful design with a seamless ability to collaborate, all while balancing the nuanced demands of business objectives.
The period I spent working alongside Chris was marked by his enthusiastic advocacy for discovery, usability, and outcome-oriented design. His expertise was crucial to the achievements of our team at Coterie, consistently leaving me energized and impressed by his contributions.
Chris excels in presenting and navigating stakeholder interactions, skillfully blending empirical data and intuitive insights with agility. His creative process is captivating, characterized by his ability to innovate and apply unique design solutions that had not previously been considered by our team.
Assigning Chris to tackle a usability challenge ensures not only a solution but an enlightening experience. He adeptly addresses complex issues with designs that are both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional, effectively driving key performance metrics (his vision increased a conversion funnel for critical business flows by 400%).
My experience with Chris has set a new bar for me regarding Product > UX partnerships. Bringing Chris into your team is an instant impact for anyone lucky enough to have him, and he'll remain on my very short list of trusted UX designers.”
