Any web design geeks out there?

An old co-worker is looking for a contractor for this gig that seems like it pays pretty well. They want someone familar with human-centered design but I think they would be open to someone with less experience. Comment with your email if you want the contact info. I'm trying to figure out if you can telecommute. The company is based in Georgia but the office I'm speaking of is I think in WalthamConcord, MA.
