Lisa has an incredible ability to get right to the heart of what the end-user experience ought to be, regardless of who that end user is. Building on this empathetic knowledge, she then helps us tailor our developments in a thoughtful way with a wide variety of potential choices and interventions that we can adopt or not, as our budget and other parameters allow. Her knowledge and experience is highly respected in the industry and she has been an invaluable asset to any development team I have ever asked her to join."
