Carin is a highly talented UX Designer who prioritises understanding the end users of her designs (for GripAble this consisted of both hospital and home patients with a vast range of different needs, as well as their therapists and carers), and worked incredibly hard to understand the healthcare market for rehabilitation and assessment apps (creating a comprehensive market research report for GripAble).

She skilfully applied all knowledge gained to create a tailored user experience in an app, providing a great fit for the market.

Her background as a programmer enabled her to consider and cover many ‘what-if’ situations in her designs, which other UX designers might have overlooked. She designed e.g. many helpful notifications and dialogues to guide the users at the right moment, and clearly showed our developers (in insightful video demos and clear designs and explanations) what happens when the users click anywhere on the screen.

Carin rapidly prototyped smoothly animated interactive demos and mock-ups, took delight in user testing with patients and therapists on location, and was always up for changing her designs if there was an opportunity to improve the product, meeting changing demands with new designs in rapid iterations, showing great flexibility and speed.

Carin delivered bright and clear screen designs for our new GripAble app, as well as all the hand icon designs inside the app.

I can highly recommend Carin as a very disciplined, efficient, skillful, and thorough UX Designer, passionate about the end user.

I enjoyed working with Carin during the design of Gripable. She listened to therapists suggestions, always ready to explain and explore other options, collaborative and kind with colleagues, adaptable and very approachable.

It is not easy to keep everyone happy, however Carin strived to ensure all input is weighed and used, with the main aim of it being user friendly.

I would highly recommend Carin to be part of anybody’s team!

Carin created the UX design for my client’s highly customisable pharmaceutical mobile app, and delivered beyond our expectations. Her input greatly improved the original experience from our initial short brief.

Her ability to rapidly understand the user and market, to recommend and implement additional features, to apply best practise patterns, and to deliver not only a high-level flowchart but all the involved app screens and notifications (in numerous real-size wireframe UI designs, to OS guidelines), while clarifying all interactions, in such a limited time-frame (just a few days) is without comparison.

Carin is always concerned with the visual balance and the interaction of the users, so that her wireframe designs can be turned into final visuals in no-time. I recommend Carin’s services without any reservations whatsoever, as the work that she provided to my client was top-tier: professional, focused, determined and fast.

Working with Carin has been a pleasure, she is not only very knowledgeable of her work, but possesses the rare quality of being able to interpret what the client wants and deliver beyond expectations.

Her creativity and adaptability shines through in everything she does, and her attention to detail makes the resulting product a high quality one.

Should the opportunity arise, I would without a doubt contract Carin again. It is a pity that I can only choose 3 attributes to describe Carin, as she certainly ticks more than just 3 boxes!

Carin was recommended to me by one of her former colleagues, and has subsequently exceeded the high expectations I had from this recommendation at every point. Having worked with her on an incredibly complicated and time intensive project and been impressed at every turn, I certainly aim to hire her again.

Her dedication to the project and the people she works with has made her absolutely invaluable. Her attention to detail is outstanding, as is the quality of her work. And on top of all this, she’s a pleasure to have around, so I can imagine her easily fitting into every team she works with.

Carin is a supremely capable Flash(Lite) developer who works with tremendous energy, dedication and invention. She prepares in depth and delivers outstanding finished products.

I’ve been fortunate enough to work with Carin as a colleague and also be managed by Carin.
As a colleague her knowledge and understanding of user experience, combined with her willingness to share and to consider competing priorities and requirements makes her a great person to have in a team.
As my manager Carin was unwaveringly supportive while also challenging me to deliver excellence. Always taking an interest in my work and personal development, Carin helped me to transition between teams and projects swiftly and successfully.
