About.

WELCOME FRIENDS

I’m John Taylor, a family man, dog lover, and enthusiastic graphic/web designer eager to join your team. I feel great design is a blend of creativity that connects and technical ease of use. I subscribe to the “don’t make them think” model of user experience (UX) development. Keep it simple, easy, and gratifying. Those are my watchwords for crafting a quality user experience.

For me its about creating connections. Skillful user interrogation (UI) builds a bridge between people and brands, giving them solutions they really want. The key is talking with your clients, figuring out what they need, and solving people’s problems quickly and easily. Do that, and you’ll turn them into clients for life. That’s my philosophy. It’s served me, my clients, and employers well over the last 15 years in my marketing and design career.

Thanks a lot for checking out the site; my portfolio is below along with my resume. If you have any questions, give me a call. I look forward to talking with you. Have a great day!

My amazing family!
