What others are saying about me
Spencer is one of the most talented designers I've ever had the pleasure to work with. His inventory redesign became a critical feature in re-thinking the struggles customers were having. Spencer researched, designed, coded a prototype, and demoed the feature to customers independently.
Spencer's passion for creating a seamless and intuitive user experience made a significant impact on the UI and UX of the software we worked on together at Gauss Surgical. The design recommendations that he developed resulted in a more intuitive user interface and increased usability of our product.
Spencer was a valuable member of our team; being a self-starter, he was always trying to understand the customer pain and use his knowledge to find opportunities that will improve the way the customer uses the product. It was an honor to work alongside him.
