I specialise in creating engaging digital experiences that deliver tangible results

My name is Chris Bolton. I’m a product design consultant. I help businesses of all sizes improve their end-user experience with expert user-driven research and design. Along with design, I also hand-code HTML and Sass to produce pixel-perfect digital products and modular code-based design systems. I’ve helped improve over 100 premium digital products during my career.

I provide two distinct services

I can either join your organization as a Lead or Senior UX Designer or consultant, leveraging my experience to ensure successful outcomes for your team on a full-time or contract basis. Alternatively, I can partner with you to design, develop, and launch a tailored end-to-end digital solution for your business.
