Frequently asked questions
Which call should I book?
If you're new to design, book Breaking into design. If you have a portfolio, book Portfolio review. If you already work as a designer, book Career move. If you run a product, book Product UX review. If you're still unsure, start with the free 15-minute Intro call and I'll point you to the right one.
What happens in a Product UX review?
Bring one flow that matters to your business, such as onboarding or a payment step, and add a link or screenshots when you book. In 45 minutes I walk through it the way your users do and tell you where people are likely to drop off and what I'd fix first. Within 24 hours you get a short written list of those fixes, in order.
Can I reschedule or get a refund?
You can ask to reschedule from your booking confirmation, up to 8 hours before the call. Paid calls aren't refunded for a change of plans, but if I have to cancel, you get a full refund.
Can I ask something without booking a call?
Yes. Ask me anything is free. Send one question about design or your career and I'll reply in writing within three days. If it needs a real conversation, I'll say so.
