that you’re talking to someone who knows a whole lot about designing
usable web sites. As one of the most requested instructors at User Interface
Engineering, she has worked with dozens of companies on their toughest
web design problems. It would be very difficult to find someone who knows
more about task design, user recruitment, and usability testing practices
than Christine. She’s been a top-rated presenter at CHI 2002, the
UIE Research Forums, Intranets 2001, and STC regional conferences.

hurt that she was one of the best students in Brown University’s
