Ever felt your software could do more for your business? You're not alone. Many startups have world-changing ideas but struggle to build a natural software experience for their customers and teammates. People get lost, feel overwhelmed, or just give up. You need an interface that is easy for everyone to use and helps to provide value for your business. That's the gap I bridge. I help innovative startups design software that users love from day one. Here's what I've done so far: ❇️ Boosted four startups (case studies below) from zero to $10 million+ in total funding with stellar UX. ❇️ 10+ years of design experience, turning ideas into user-friendly software. ❇️ Collaborated with 100s of people worldwide over the past half a decade. ❇️ Consulted with organizations like Duke University Hospital, University of California: Berkeley, North Carolina State University, Wake County Public Schools, Bloom Institute of Technology, TARGAN, SRAM, and 10+ more. Are you eager to enhance or start your software? Reach out, and let's start a conversation about your experience. P.S. While it's my job to talk about my client's success, not myself, I guess it's fair to give a short introduction to me too: I'm an experience (UX) director wizard living in Raleigh, NC. When not designing, you can find me sweeping triathlons, exploring outdoors, or eating peppers off my jalapeño plant. 🌶️

I am tech startup founder and expert in sales/marketing operations, product development, UX, and managing the customer experience. I can improve user experience by designing wireframes and prototypes with the goal of delivering the right solution. I can also help you maximize business revenue by enabling your sales & marketing teams to improve processes with systems for prospecting, reporting, and deal management. --- Sales & Marketing Operations. I'm good at helping small to medium size companies optimize their sales and marketing tools. For over 10 years I have used HubSpot. I was an early customer of theirs and I've done everything you can imagine to make the tool work for my other company. I am HubSpot Marketing and Sales certified and I have a knack for all things sales/marketing ops. In addition to creating sales and marketing dashboards with custom reports, I have most recently used Pendo, Zapier, and HubSpot to create HubSpot Workflows that automatically create Tasks, notifications, and Deals for users that have engaged with our software in particular modules. I have built email templates, managed custom imports, performed data cleanup, built sequences, and defined personas, funnels and custom fields. --- CX/UX & Product My passion for customer experience and UX has has also driven me to implement user centered design (UCD) concepts like UX research, prototyping, and extensive usability testing. Using Figma, Sketch or Axure, I can build clickable prototypes and help software companies validate their ideas and test for usability. This greatly reduces the chance you will ship something customer don't love or can't use. Backing up a bit into the UCD process I've also performed research through in-depth user interviews to help inform business objectives. Qualitative research is always more time-consuming than quantitive (like surveys) but I find it help you understand the customer better and uncover unmet needs in the process. --- Why work with me? Experience and range. I will not only dig in and to the work, but you'll get my 15+ years of start up experience. If there's a mistake to be made in building software, I've done it. My mistakes are an advantage you'll have with me by your side.
