Duane was a great addition to the team at AppLearn, he was able to design and prototype our product vision and communicate this to the development team. Duane was also instrumental in investor meeting and presentations when demonstrating our software capability. Duane also organised a fantastic hiking challenge around the Yorkshire 3 peaks to raise money for charity. Top guy and still a good personal friend. Highly recommend in any business.

Duane took me on as a web developer to join his platform team at HiHo, he was great to work for and certainly had a strong drive to succeed, he’d chosen the team well, as we all had different strengths but similar attitudes. It was a real shame when the company shut down as I really enjoyed working with Duane and the team at HiHo. I’d definitely work with Duane again if the opportunity ever came up

Duane is a very talented and hard working web designer with a broad range of skills. He is a strong manager of people and contributes to the wider organisation above and beyond his role. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for a position.

I had the pleasure of working with Duane on a number of projects at ao.com, always willing to work within the development team as a point of contact and collaboratively with the team to deliver the functionality required. I’ve found Duane to be a skilled designer & coder able to deliver quality responsive sites with a thought for the user experience.

Duane did an impressive work of rebranding Hiho and it was spot on. He is very talented designer/developer and knows his technologies very well. He helped me rebrand the internal application that I was developing and Stakeholders/end users loved it. I enjoyed working with him and would look forward working with him again.

Duane leads by example, combining a positive can-do work ethic with great UX insight and design. I have learnt a lot from working under him and would welcome the opportunity to do so again in the future.

Duane has been my manager for the last 6 months, and in that time I’ve learnt a lot from him. As a company we are always under pressure to deliver results in a short timeframe, so sketching wire framing and prototyping has been key to getting ideas down. Duane has helped speed up our internal design process and together we have achieved some great results. I’m pleased to have worked with Duane, he certainly got things done, and cut to the chase on many occasions. Given the opportunity I’d enjoy working with Duane again.

Duane is basically one of the best Developer / Designers I know, highly skilled and loves his craft I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for someone to make their website, look and feel amazing whilst giving your customers THE best journey and experience along the way. Brilliant at what he does and actually cares.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Duane for almost a decade across multiple businesses, and his expertise in UX, front-end development, and product management is excellent.

Duane is an exceptional designer, with a talent for creating intuitive and visually engaging user experiences. He also excels in front-end development, translating designs into clean, efficient code. What really sets Duane apart is his ability to think strategically, especially in balancing product management and development work. He has a talent for balancing user needs with business objectives and always deliver results, no matter how complex the project.

Beyond his technical skills, Duane is a fantastic collaborator—communicative, dedicated, and always focused on the bigger picture. I highly recommend Duane to any team looking for a well-rounded professional who can contribute on many levels.

Duane is a talented individual who understands the different nuances of the web in great depth. I’ve had the privilege of working with him in a team of designers. His e-commerce experience comes from years of working in the industry. He is always quick to spot issues in design and come up with user focussed solutions. I would recommend him in a role where e-commerce and design are key. The added bonus is that he also understands the different platforms very well.

Having worked with Duane, I always found him to be a dedicated and passionate member of the team. He cares about making a difference to a business and really brings people together to deliver great projects.

I helped out with the responsive rebuild of the MyParcelDelivery site for a short time, and during my time on the project I was really impressed with what Duane did in terms of the rebrand. It brought MPD right up to date and gave it some real personality. Duane struck me as someone who really knew what he was doing both in creative and technical terms, and I really enjoyed working with him
