About me

My photo
Rob Waller
Frome, United Kingdom
I am an experienced simplification consultant, specialising in information design, service design, and brand experience. I've worked in many sectors, including financial services, legal information, government, telecommunications, energy, and retail. There's more about me on my website www.robwaller.org Apology: many of my older posts are missing the illustrations. I don't know why, but it will take me a while to reload them.
