Chris Young, Principal of The Qualitative Research Shop, appreciates the Internet, technology and the study of human behavior as it relates to the user experience.  Living and working in the San Francisco Bay area and the heart of the Silicon Valley since 1995 has proven to be a rewarding and exciting journey that has afforded me many opportunities to work with highly talented and influential people.  Depending on the type of research your project requires, the length of the engagement and the nature of expertise needed, I partner with many of these people, as needed. Take a look at my LinkedIn connections and recommendations for an idea of the company I keep.
