"I’ve been in tech for 15 years. Ciarán is in the top 3 designers I’ve ever worked with. His grasp of the fundamentals are very strong, but that’s not what sets him apart. What sets him apart is his ability to:

1. Understand what he’s designing or selling almost better than the client understands it (I believe this is called cognitive empathy).
2. Work at pace while maintaining design integrity. I’ve genuinely never worked with someone who has managed to get the really important things right, and nail the finish, without spending a disproportionate amount of time on the minutiae. This style works incredibly well if you’re working on SAAS and/or landing pages, both of which were the case for our projects.

I’ve worked with Ciaran on 3 projects this year - two where we were working for the same client, and one where he was working for me. I have since recommended him to over 10 people in my personal network - this is not an exaggeration."
