"Ben's an exceptional UX designer with impeccable problem solving skills and a super positive vibe, even under pressure. He's worked with us on a number of projects, including very complex web apps which require deep product knowledge along with comprehensive discovery work to identify issues and opportunities for improvements. His solutions are always super logical and well thought out. He's a top designer, very well organised and an excellent communicator with a great temperament. Looking forward to our next collaboration!"
