I'm offering
My differentiation factors come from a long background in interaction design, web design and development experience and a proven record of UX design in the last 4 years, successfully transforming SaaS product for the satisfaction of IoT customers. I am not a graphic designer making pretty interfaces working with user experience documentation. I create those documents and I work with your business to advice, prove and measure customer satisfaction. I have worked closely with business process executives, customer service, product owner and technology executives. I know the language of the developers and I know how they work. I have been exposed to Agile and Scrum many years. But I am almost always user-centric and I will turn your business strategies in to usable, useful and desirable product features.
