Complex data flows and Design System implementation
Services, knowledge and core skills
Design Systems management
Bringing consistency from small pattern libraries to sprawling component systems, a managed and accessible Design System will bring trust throughout a company with consistent application of brand assets and resources that are customer and user focussed with accessibility at it’s core.
Specification and design handoff workflows
I can plan and implement workflows across teams in a business or organisation. I will get the right balance for the teams and individual skills and the numerous factors that influence any workflow. I have successfully implemented detailed handover processes at Plyo over the past 2 years that introduce commit and versioning to the design process.
Prototyping with Figma and HTML/CSS/Tailwind
With all available research, rapid prototype with a design tool such as Figma, and/or in the browser revealing details leading to efficient working and great outcomes.
Consultancy
Providing strategy and critical thinking for any company or organisation facing digital communication challenges to bring in the best services and skills. I helped scope and source a new development partner for Archivist.
CMS Configuration
I have experience building and project managing many sprawling content heavy sites with Craft CMS from being an early adopter. I can plan content structures and clear build strategies and can pick up database, headless and flat-file systems quickly.
