About Me

Hello there!

My name's Pete Williams and I'm a UX Designer and Web Developer based in Guildford, Surrey.

I love making easy to use websites and applications by discovering how users really think and what business really need. I've been making websites for around 15 years, so I like to think I've now got the hang of it.

I genuinely love what I do, and am committed to learning as much as I can. As such, I'm constantly reading and learning from my peers in the London UX/IA community.

This ensures I can continually offer the latest technology, practices and ideas, to put your company at the very forefront of customer experiences.

If I sound like someone you'd like to work with, please do get in touch.
