Ben Schlaepfer - Profile
Since setting the background colour of my first html table 12 years ago I’ve been obsessed with presentation on the web. From Creating Killer Websites to Designing with Web Standards I’ve enjoyed watching the 'rules' and styles of online user experience evolve and change.
I’ve been specialising in SharePoint for the last two years, after a stint delivering eGovernment and Web Content Management Consultancy. Prior to that I held senior eCommerce positions within Barclays PLC and The Woolwich.
I am always looking for, and trying to learn, new ways to help people get their information across via electronic channels with the style and impact it deserves.
You'll see the word Consultant repeatedly over on the right there. It's often what I am initially engaged to do; however I continually use the tools and technologies that I advise on and believe that it's this hands-on understanding of the capabilities and quirks that is of particular use to my clients.
