UX engagement at Unilever
My previous role at Unilever was to bring in and establish a new UX understanding and approach to adapt UX principals and recommendations across Online user tools for internal and external users. In all a wonderful experience working in Port Sunlight and making new friends around the Globe. But pleasing also to understand that the likes of Unilever being such a huge Global company are wanting to engage and change their approach and treat an end user and work with them to gain their feedback through, good UX and UI design and treat the end user as a human not a machine.
Coast and Boats Book
Here is a page showing an ongoing development of a project I have worked on for many years. David Hillhouse who was a wonderful painter and my first Manager at the Williamson Art Gallery based in Oxton, Birkenhead, sadly has passed on, wrote and researched all the stories based on historical factual content around the Northwest. These stories will be fascinating as to the material David managed to discover while relating the stories to my photographs. These two books are really snapshots of what I would really like to publish and redesign into one book when funds or a sponsor could be found. The original concept was to tour the book and an exhibition of the photographs around the Northwest with David providing talks about some of the historical stories he has uncovered. Sadly this will not happen, but as memory to David I am wanting to publish the book and let others read and see the images we have paired together in a fascinating journey around the Coastline and Peninsula.
