My added value

My added value to you

UX for Intuitive products, and intuitive systems

Knowing human cognition on a deeper level means that I can test and design with proven methods to help meet your user's expectations, whether it's for one app or an entire ecosystem.

Value proposition testing and design

While UX amplifies the amount of people you can reach, the key to product success is still having the most optimal value or features in the first place. I can both test and design to refine this as well.

Business savvy to make good economical decisions

Even if it's valuable for your user, it must also improve your company's bottom line. With the gains I've made in this area. I can help think WITH your business stakeholders to increase the bottom line.

How I can concretely help your team

#1: Product discovery

In my experience, many teams focus on delivering solutions without fully understanding the problem.

In order to achieve the most impact possible, I can help you by first uncovering customer needs, then move them into product and service concepts that help your product gain a distinctive advantage for your customers.

Subject Matter Expert interviews

Customer Journey maps & Omni-channel perspectives

Discovery & Design sprints

#2: UX Design, Research & Prototyping

As a seasoned digital product designer, I can move high-level concepts into detailed design and prototypes—ready for delivery in agile teams.

Interaction & UX design

Low- to high-fidelity prototypes

UX Research with customers

Polished visual designs

#3: Stakeholder management

Having worked as an agency guy and a consultant in several teams, I have shown I can handle the coordination with team-members, other departments, and third parties.

A lot of UX designers lament that they're not having a seat at the table. I work differently by building influence consistently, and by including stakeholder perspectives in my work to eventually gain the trust to claim that seat.

Facilitation & Workshops

Product Roadmap Defining

Bringing together multiple stakeholder interests

Some Kind words

Others about me

"I had the chance to work with Simon at Proximus. He's an outstanding Product Designer. Simon really gets to the heart of problems. He asks the tough questions and doesn't just accept things as they are. This makes his solutions top-notch. If you're looking for a solid Product Designer who brings more to the table, Simon's your guy."

Arnaud Ostrowski, Design Systems Lead @ Elia

"I had the privilege of working on a team with Simon during our time at Hike One. Simon is very quick to gain a core understanding of a complex issue in its greater context. He is skilled at finding an intuitive and elegant solution for that problem at the appropriate scale, whether it be a macro detail or a strategic level solution. Simon also always makes time for his colleagues, I very much enjoyed my time working with Simon, and found him a very valuable asset. I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again."
