Doug is a brilliant creative. At Zenkey I depended heavily on Doug's creative prowess and his ability to manage, lead his team. As the director of UX, I witness Doug's collaboration skills first-hand. What I've come to appreciate the most are his level-headed approach, fresh perspective and Doug's hands-on approach to UX. Doug has also introduced many tools to Zenkey which further improved the collaboration between creatives and engineering. You can expect great work, amazing collaboration, forward thinking ideas and outstanding leadership from him. I would welcome any opportunity to work with Doug again, he would be an amazing addition to further enhanced any creative team.

Doug and his team were excellent partners in launching highly secure mobile application aimed to disrupt the identity access management market. He and his team were always there to support the company in their ever-changing priorities and consistently delivered high-quality work on time and without drama. Every job delivered resulted from usability research, professional design, and the user on top of mind. The work was backed by quantitative information that helped ZenKey to make the right decisions. On the personal side, Doug always had a pleasant (almost soothing) demeanor that I sincerely appreciated in such a hectic environment. He was a great partner, and I am looking forward to working with him in the future.

I worked with Doug at Swanson Health Products. Doug is very knowledgeable in all aspects of user experience. Doug bases his solutions on research and user testing. He constructs clean visuals and is always designing to give the end user a delightful experience. Doug is professional, backs up his designs with expertise, and has a passion for creating user-friendly interfaces. I found Doug to be an excellent resource and I think he would make a great addition to any team.

MikeS200x200

Doug joined our team as the Director of User Experience at a time when we had no design or UX resources. He capably filled several roles in both design and user experience. Doug also showed he's experienced in working with product teams, knowing the language and processes, fitting well into our team, and even being proactive in suggesting and implementing ideas to improve our ideation process. He has a broad range of experience and skills (including drummer and drone pilot!) that I think would benefit any tech company.

On a number of occasions, I've hired Doug to design, develop and deploy internet and intranet sites. He always delivered insightful and creative solutions as well as a quality work product. Even though his expertise resides in the IT world, we hired Doug to work within our marketing department to help bridge the gaps between marketing, sales and IT. The result of this collaborative effort gave us a better product, delivered on time and on target with our exact business requirements. Gotta love that...

Doug is a great guy who is very knowledgeable in web design and all that encompasses the web. I've worked with him on several projects and he's always a pleasure to work with. If he doesn't know the answer to something, he'll find it, but usually if it's web-related, he's on top of it and probably already knows it already. On top of that, he's creative-minded and is very skilled in talking through ideas in order to find solutions.
