ABOUT DAVID LEAHY

I'm a Human Factors / Ux Design professional with many years of experience in 2D prototyping wireframe storyboards and screen mock-ups and more recently 3D Unity simulation scenarios and equipment assessment Mock-ups.  I have many years experience in following the User Design Process, understanding the need, context of use and requirements specification along with strategies for proving those requirements.  I have experience interviewing end users of differing levels of ability to identify the goals of each user group as well as profiling target audience skill and experience levels. I’ve performed knowledge elicitation exercises with the goals of producing expert systems, most of which I’ve specified and programmed myself. I have extensive experience in Human Factors Engineering, writing HFI deliverables as well an conducting Human Factors modelling and anthropometry exercises, followed by recommendations to designers and then to field trials to gather evidence for  certification of designs. I’ m very flexible in my approach to work and open to all ideas and suggestions. My hobby is Genealogy and I’ve written several books on the subject and more recently historical fiction based on some of the stories I've uncovered.
