Carolyn Snyder is a usability consultant based in Derry, New Hampshire (near Boston). She works with companies who want to make their software and web sites more user-friendly. She is particularly interested in e-commerce, but she works on web sites, web applications, and conventional software in a wide variety of industries. In her nine years as a usability professional, she has conducted hundreds of usability tests on dozens of products and web sites.

Philosophy: Teach, not Preach

Many of Carolyn's clients have previously done little usability testing but recognize its importance. Having spent 10 years as a software engineer and project manager, Carolyn recognizes that design always involves trade-offs. Carolyn's role as a usability consultant is not to tell development teams what to do, but rather to help them recognize, prioritize, and solve usability problems. Her style is a pragmatic mix of business acumen, respect for developers and users, and humor. Ultimately, her goal as a usability consultant is to make her profession obsolete!
