As the first in-house UX hire at multiple companies, I’ve built UX operations from the ground up, driven cross-functional collaboration, and shaped products that balance business goals with exceptional user experiences.

    UX Benchmark Testing is an efficient method of studying how users interact with, and think about an interface. It’s a crucial step toward continuously improving your site’s user experience. Benchmark Tests that take place periodically act as a point of reference for your site’s metrics or Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) to be compared and evaluated on a regular basis.
