Holistic Focus
Each project is different and I adapt to each by using appropriate tools and skills, which may include:
- Sketching out and discussing ideas
- Developing personas and user journeys
- Interaction design
- Wireframing – I use Adobe XD or Balsamiq
- Rapid Prototyping – I use Adobe XD or HTML
- Research
- User testing
- Information architecture
- Writing documentation
- Creating Style Guides | Design Systems
I bridge the gap between technical and non-technical people and can:
- Interact directly with clients
- Manage development and testing resources
- Review technology stacks
