Richard Carroll

WEB / UI / UX / Graphic Designer

I am skilled in graphic design, website / application interface design, as well as print and marketing related design. My focus is user-centered design, storyboards / wireframes, UX optimized interfaces, SEO and cross platform compatible website designs using the latest W3C standards.

I am capable of working closely with project management, business analysts and stakeholders in order to optimize the user experience for the target audience, as well as both designers and developers to convey ideas that will translate into design optimized for code, and code optimized for design for an optimal user experience.

I am a very self motivated and driven UI/UX/Graphic designer that is passionate about the work that I do, and I always strive to learn more. My objective is to work with a team of talented and experienced designers and developers who will compliment my own abilities in order to build the best user experiences possible.
