Robert M Cockburn

I have been involved with interaction design since 2006 and have worked on projects that have had single year design budgets ranging from $500,000 to $12 million. The designs that I have worked on have ranged from transaction applications covering a single page to multiple intentions; to information display for high level executives to make informed decisions on business health. I have also been involved with the planning and execution of user testing with interactive Visio files, paper prototypes, and live versions of the targeted application. Within Visio I can create macros to speed the design and story making process along with creating custom shapes and stencils. I have had exposure to both iRise and Axure, and currently have planned the development of an Axure shapes template that follow internal visual standards. I have lead and instructed project resources in the creation of designs when the project scope was large enough to require more then what the core design team could produce. I have also worked to develop a CSS cross-browser class library to insure that internal standards are displayed the same way in IE 7, 8, 9, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
