My Design Process

is rooted in design thinking, beginning with empathizing with users to identify and understand their challenges. From there, I ideate solutions, develop prototypes, and rigorously test my ideas to ensure they effectively address user needs. I frequently employ frameworks such as Lean UX to structure my approach. The tools I use most often are Figma, FigJam, Photoshop, and Premiere Pro which are invaluable for collaborative creation of MVPs and fostering teamwork. Additionally, my extensive experience in Agile development workflows allows me to adapt and thrive in dynamic project environments, ensuring that design and development are seamlessly integrated for optimal results.

Because I know how to code (I minored in programming in college!), I know how to collaborate with engineers and what to expect turning design into code and vice versa. 

My design values are honesty, empathy, and accessibility.
