Conversion-focused UX Sr. Specialist who improves websites through UX/CRO and digital accessibility audits.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Conversion-Focused UX Sr. Specialist with 20+ years of experience in IT and digital systems, focused on UX and CRO analysis. I help businesses and website owners understand why users don’t convert—and what to improve—by pinpointing friction points, trust issues, and unclear conversion paths.
I analyse user experience across business websites and online stores, then deliver clear, practical recommendations that teams can implement effectively. With my technical background, I translate insights so developers and stakeholders can align quickly and improve sites correctly and efficiently.
In parallel, I lead UX/CRO and digital accessibility audit work while collaborating on AI training and evaluation projects, focusing on reasoning quality, logic consistency, and structured assessment of AI outputs. As the founder of a boutique digital consultancy, I prioritize inclusive digital experiences, prioritized accessibility recommendations, and actionable guidance that improves enquiries and usability.
