IPPIS EDVMS validationFrom first research interview to production-ready handoff — the four disciplines I'm brought in for.
A short, transparent process — you always know what is happening, what is next, and what I need from you.
Stakeholder interviews, existing flows, and the real constraints — regulatory, technical and organisational — before a single screen is drawn.
Flows, wireframes, then high-fidelity screens on a component system — reviewed in short loops so decisions stay visible and cheap to change.
Specs, tokens and handoff support through build — then measure what shipped and refine where the numbers say it matters.
Trust-critical products — fintech, legaltech, civic tech and enterprise platforms — where clarity and accuracy matter more than decoration. I work on both new products and rescuing systems that have grown unwieldy.
Fixed scope for defined pieces of work, and a monthly retainer for ongoing product design. You get a written scope and a timeline before anything starts.
A focused product surface is typically 3–5 weeks. A full platform with a design system runs 8–12 weeks depending on how many roles and states it has to serve.
Yes — closely. I hand off tokens, components and specs, stay available through build, and review implementation so what ships matches what was designed.
Yes. I embed with product and engineering teams on a retainer, joining your rituals and tools rather than working at a distance.
A product to build, a role to discuss, or a portfolio walkthrough over a call — I'd love to hear from you.
