Core competencies
Chris can take a project from concept through to delivery. During this process, Chris often focus’ on these key areas:
Business Analysis
Talking to the in-house experts, that’s where it all begins. What is their need, where are the pain points and how can it be best defined. These are some of the questions for a BA. It takes practice and skill to properly facilitate the efforts required to make a great product.
User Experience
Build a product that no one wants to use… that’s easy.
Create a product that truly engages an end user… that’s something must be carefully crafted from the very first idea. It’s in this area where a great User Experience Architect makes his trade.
Strategy and Management
Define the goals, bring them to the experience, plan the work, and take the correct actions to bring it all together. It’s not an easy feat, but it’s critical to bring everything to the desired finish. Each project is different and requires flexibility, experience, and the correct guidance.
