I'm a Usability and User Experience Expert.
I am a Top Rated freelancer that has earned Upwork's Skill Certification in User Experience Design.
My specialties include:
- Usability Analysis - I can show you where your visitors are most likely to have trouble on your site, mobile site, app or SAAS
- User Research - Talking to users of your product or service is the best way to get the right feedback. I can show you how or do it for you
- Prototyping - Before you invest in a new site or app create a prototype and use that to get feedback BEFORE you build it. Save time and headaches (for you and your customers)
- Wireframing - Wireframes are the blueprints for your site or app. I can create these for you to turn over to your developer
For the past 25 years, I have been involved in many functions designed to create the best sites, mobile sites, and applications possible. I've been a writer, creative director, editor, information architect/user experience architect, and director of usability testing.
I've worked for big advertising agencies on large accounts (Ford, General Motors, Dodge, Virgin Airlines, Scott's Lawn Care, Aldi, Bosch) and by myself for small clients.
My passion is usability testing and UX/CRO Reviews/audits.
Using several online and in-person tools, I can help you make your sites and applications perform better, look better and win you more business.

Web, Mobile & AI Product Architecture:
Most digital products don’t fail because of bad technology, they fail because the system behind them becomes too complex.
Too many tools. Too many integrations. Too many quick fixes that slowly turn into operational chaos.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Aaron. I help SaaS companies, startups, and scaling teams design clean, scalable digital ecosystems across:
• Custom web platforms
• Mobile applications (iOS / Android / cross-platform)
• AI automation and workflow systems
• GPT / LLM integrations
• CRM and operational infrastructure
I don’t just build features, I design the product architecture and system structure that allows companies to scale without breaking their workflows.
My approach combines product thinking, UX strategy, and hands-on development execution to move projects from idea → infrastructure → scalable product.
No patchwork builds. No fragile tech stacks. No spreadsheet empires running critical operations.
Just clean systems designed for growth.
I typically work with:
• SaaS founders
• Funded startups
• Scaling agencies
• Teams preparing for product growth
If you're building something ambitious or trying to untangle a system that’s already grown complex feel free to send a message or book a call.
Happy to take a look and help simplify things.

I'm a Product Designer, Agentic Engineer, and Product Thinker with 18+ years of experience building digital products that people actually want to use — across eCommerce, B2B, B2C, SaaS, and enterprise platforms.
My background spans some of the region's most recognized brands: Head of Design & Experience at StarHub, Design Manager for Enterprise UX at Agoda, Team Lead at Microsoft, and senior roles across the US and Southeast Asia. I've built and led multidisciplinary teams of designers, researchers, and brand strategists — but these days I'm fully hands-on, freelancing full-time and doing what I love most: solving real product problems from the ground up.
What makes me a little different: I don't just design — I build. I'm comfortable working across the full product stack, from early strategy and user research through Figma prototypes, design systems, and developer-ready handoff. As an Agentic Engineer, I work with AI as a deliberate collaborator — defining the architecture, logic, and approach first before directing AI tools to execute with precision. This is a fundamentally different discipline from simply prompting and hoping for the best. I also integrate AI into my design workflow daily — accelerating research synthesis, generating concepts faster, and moving from brief to polished output more efficiently than a traditional process allows.
This combination — senior strategic thinking, hands-on execution, and AI-augmented workflow — means I can do in days what used to take weeks, without sacrificing quality.
What I can help you with:
— UX/UI design for web and mobile
— SaaS and enterprise product design
— eCommerce and checkout experience
— Website redesigns in Figma, Framer, or Webflow
— UX audits and conversion optimization
— Design systems and component libraries
— Research, testing, and synthesis
— Prototyping and developer handoff
— Full-stack site and application builds using agentic AI development workflows — from architecture and logic definition through to a fully deployed, production-ready product
I work best with clients who value clear thinking, fast execution, and a designer who asks the right questions before jumping to solutions.
If that sounds like you, let's talk.
