My name is Catt Small.
I design beautifully usable experiences by working directly with product managers and engineers on agile development teams. I also write and make games. Subscribe to my newsletter and follow my RSS feed for regular updates about my work and life.
What I do
-
Product Design
Today’s products must provide a consistent experience across devices. I create data-informed, user-centered interaction & visual designs for screens of all sizes.
-
User Research
Good design needs research. I have years of experience with facilitating interviews, heuristic reviews, card-sorting exercises, and usability tests.
-
Game Design
Games are a great medium for storytelling and increasing empathy. I design, code, illustrate, and create user interfaces for games.
-
Web Development
I rapidly prototype using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I also have heavy amounts of experience with PHP and frameworks such as jQuery and AngularJS.
