Bio
Martin Pyke
Claire comes across incredibly well, has a genuine passion for what she does coupled with the ability to articulate this to both technical and non-technical people. Claire is smart, professional and polite and it was a real pleasure helping her secure her next career move.
Jon Block
I have worked with Claire both at ITV and on a small micro-blogging project, called Goalpostr, where she helped out as the design lead. She is not only an excellent designer, but also a proficient front-end developer. And very importantly she has a great eye for user experience design and information architecture.

Jul 2009 - Oct 2011
Following on from my previous role as a junior designer at itv.com, I moved to front end development as I found myself more engaged with implementation than design.There was an ever increasing level of responsibility: leading development for major properties; producing standards documentation for Front End Development within the company and UI development for ITV Player (PS3 and .com refresh).To enable our small team to be freed up from smaller custom builds for lower profile properties I worked on conceptualising and driving forward the development of a core set of flexible templates and modules for use within the bespoke CMS. This project enabled the department to reduce both development and design time required for a series section by providing a solid base for theme application. Show less
