Skills
Digital product UX / UI designer with 9+ years of experience
solving complex problems with simple, intuitive and engaging
experiences. I have disciplines in ultimately defining a digital
product, the user goals and business goals that make a project
successful.
I solve these with a design process called the double diamond
method. Deliverables include journey maps, persona creation, jobs
to be done, card storting, interview facilitation, usability,
contextual interviews, immersive field research, immersive field
studies and establishing behavioral segments. I consider myself a
full stack designer where I can take an idea from a strategy to
prototype. I have designed and strategized concepts for the web,
iOS, android, television, wearables, and hand held devices.
