John lent his unique depth of skills in melding UI concepts and content to deliver outstanding products supporting critical business initiatives at Ernst & Young. John demonstrated an ability to quickly analyze the core requirements of a user/audience base and design an approach that was elegant, compelling, and strongly resonant with our specific user communities. John combines world class design and UI skills with dead on targeting for the needs of client users. I strongly endorse John's work for future initiatives in any industry
