What others think about working with me
"I am so happy that I had my beautiful website made by Liam! He really took the time to listen to my ideas, develop them into sketches, and then bring them to life as a website.
Whenever I had an idea, Liam made sure to understand it well. If my idea turned out to be not entirely realistic, he would suggest good alternatives, always with a clear explanation of why an alternative or adjustment would be better.
It was a very pleasant collaboration; therefore, I would truly recommend Liam to everyone!"
"Eager. If someone’s eager it would be Liam. Participating in a range of courses to upgrade his knowledge in UX/UI design not being the only thing he’s eager about. Eager to translate the business requirements into a user-friendly, intuitive interface. The sum of this results in easthetic visualizations of the customer journey, which we experienced as an excellent point for take off in our software development process."
I had the pleasure of working alongside Liam Tanis on the Jongerenraad026 project, where we collaborated to design and develop a website. Liam played a pivotal role in shaping the user experience (UX), bringing his expertise and creativity to the forefront.
Liam is an enthusiastic designer who translates his thought processes and complex ideas into clear solutions. His passion for his craft is evident in every detail of his work, and he is deeply committed to creating solutions that truly meet the client's needs.
His ability to balance innovative design with user-focused functionality is very good. Working with Liam was really (and I mean it!) a fantastic experience, and I’m confident he will bring immense value to any team he joins.
"Liam understands by nature, that design forms the fundament of the message, in order to move the heart."
