I am writing to recommend Liam Carl as he pursues other employment opportunities. Over the last 18 months, Liam and I have worked closely together on a very complex joint-company website launch that has taken several different directions over time. Liam has been extremely adaptable and has offered valuable suggestions as the team solidified it’s vision for the website. In addition to offering creative verbal suggestions, Liam took the initiative to present several real-time, accommodating designs that sparked conversation amongst the team. He also led our customer usability testing that provided several key findings that helped us to revise our approach. Without those findings, we could have launched a site that confused customers and, ultimately, lost sales.
Liam is forward thinking, creative, detail oriented and passionate about his work – all desirable qualities for UX design roles. He would be a valuable addition to any team.

The big thing that stands out about Liam to me is his passion for new ideas, new ways of looking at things. I don’t know how many meetings I’ve been in with him where his excitement for a fresh challenge comes through. His diverse experience gives him new ways of looking at old problems, and his active interest in the latest thinking around design keep him at the forefront of what’s going on in the industry.
