Ben van de Sande’s Summary

At Studio Pomodoro I design all-round internet solutions either by simplifying and automating business processes or creating accessible digital communication like websites.

When designing I create balanced and usable solutions providing great user experiences. During development I focus on accessible and semantic content.

On a project I focus on business requirements and quality using SCRUM, an agile project management method. This will ensure all time spend on the project will be used as effectively as possible, saving on time and money.
