Hi, I’m Aaron Knoll.

I have over twenty years of experience helping teams build successful software products as a UX and Product Designer.

Empathy might save the world, but it might also save your product

How I can help

Led design for greenfield and growth stage startups that secured $10M’s of funding and $10M’s of successful exits.

Turned the tide for a company experiencing year-over-year decline in applications, through a research and testing driven redesign. The next year applications were up 25%.

Helped spur a reduction of nearly 65% in task completion time for users of an AI-powered SaaS platform. Led the research that helped identify the challenge (trust) and designed flow that accelerated the trust-building process.

I have a knack for finding the less-visible user motivations that once discovered, can unlock pathways to business success.

What I can do for you

Create a new design function at your org.
Coaching, mentoring and developing your team
User research, market analysis
Implementing DesignOps and ResearchOps
Accessibility (A11Y) and accessibility strategy

“They were not just consultants and staff augmentation like so many firms in the market, but truly melded themselves into our company to be a part of our team, both in work execution and in cultural fit.”
