I work closely with key groups, including research, business teams, and stakeholders, to deliver impactful work and ensure it's effectively socialized across the organization. My design process focuses on creating detailed UI designs with accessibility at the forefront and collaborating with engineers to bring those designs to life. I partner with UX researchers to develop research plans, conduct stakeholder and user interviews, and lead usability testing for assigned projects. I also facilitate workshops and ideation sessions to generate ideas and solve complex design challenges, translating research insights into innovative new products and features. Throughout the process, I design workflows and create detailed interactive prototypes to clearly communicate ideas to stakeholders from concept to launch.

I documented the problem, assumptions, and research plan, then conducted research through interviews, card sorts, surveys, and other methods. Using digital collaboration tools, I analyzed user feedback and shared insights with stakeholders. I collaborated with engineering to refine feature build steps and created and iterated on prototypes based on user feedback, ensuring comprehensive workflows and error handling. I also leveraged ongoing analytics to validate or challenge success assumptions.

I collaborated with product management to define requirements for new and existing products. I created and updated UX wireframes based on use cases and business needs. Working closely with product managers, engineers, and information developers, I designed UI flows, specifications, and conducted usability studies. I also documented UI specifications and collaborated with development teams to ensure the accurate implementation of visual and interaction designs.

I collaborated with cross-functional teams to build functional prototypes based on approved design strategies, offered recommendations for areas where current technology did not fully support the design. Identified scalable needs and developed a library of reusable tools for internal and external teams. Assessed user needs and provided realistic, scalable design recommendations. Stress tested new features to identify impacts on authoring and user requirements. Recommended and adjusted interactive layouts and media according to style guides and project specifications.

I created interactive widgets to enhance learning experiences across grade levels and disciplines. Evaluated and presented widget options, assessing their benefits. Developed image assets from scratch, ensuring proper layering and integration of vendor and in-house art.
