Hi, I’m Alan…

Sometimes I like to publish stuff on the Internet. This is where I do it.

About me

My name is Alan Cox. I am originally from Billericay in England but now living a happy and fulfilling life in Christchurch, New Zealand. I am a father of three and have an English Cocker Spaniel called Alfie who comes to work at my office.

I originally trained as an electronics engineer with Marconi Avionics. For the past 15 years I have been involved in software design and have been practising user-centred design for the best part of that time. The past 10 years has been focused on user-experience-design for web and e-commerce.

Currently, I’m managing director at user-experience-design studio LeftClick.

When I’m not working, I go for long cycle rides around the Port Hills, do family stuff with my three kids, and when I get time do a bit of photography..
