“We worked with Calliope over a period of several months on an international research project and got to know her well. She is a very responsive and detail-oriented researcher, and engages enthusiastically and critically with research questions. In Calliope, you will find a staunch advocate of the user's perspective - a useful north star to any design project”.

— Imogen Clark, Principal Design Researcher, @Sutherland Labs

“Calliope was an asset to our team providing valuable input into the digital design process. Her approach to web design was rooted in clear values of usability and she was a fount of pertinent reading materials regarding this and wider principles of web design. She also showed her ability in developing using Wordpress, html, css, PHP and MySql databases. When confronted with a problem she always showed a tenacity in trying to work her way around it while still delivering web builds that satisfied WC3 standards. I would recommend Calliope for a role where she is given space to input into the design and build phases of web design working as part of an experienced and dedicated team”.

What People Are Saying

 

“Calliope was very easy to work with. She has a lot of good experience and always based her arguments on facts. We're very happy with the work she did for us”.

— Linnea Söderholm, Digital Marketing Executive @Tilt

“Calliope was a pleasure to work with. She embodies a very thorough work ethic & has consistently delivered high levels of work with us. I would be happy to have her back within the team, and recommend her highly onwards.”

— James Brown Head of Studio & Operations @ TSL Digital

“Calliope joined the team part-way through the initial concept creation phase of a digital design project and was able to pick up the work swiftly. This required thorough investigation of existing materials, frequent communication with the other designers and the capacity to continue creating relevant and purposeful ideas. Calliope led a number of interactive working sessions to develop the concepts and she subsequently produced sketched representations of these concepts. Calliope then worked with the team to enhance the fidelity and breadth of the concepts so that they were fit for one round of remote user testing.”

— Tom Smith @Splendid Digital

“Calliope assisted me with one of our client's requests for usability assistance on an early prototype. We discussed a wide range of User-Centered Design techniques and processes to agree on a triangulation approach of usability testing, card sorting and the ISO standard SUS questionnaire. She was very open to feedback and her final report, recommendations and edited video were insightful and clearly addressed the issues with the prototype. I look forward to working with her again whether on an ongoing basis as this project matures or other projects that require a wide range of knowledge and skills”.
