About me
Design background
I am a versatile and well-rounded UX/UI designer proficient in various disciplines, possessing a comprehensive grasp of research and design. My passion for design, automobiles, technology, and gadgets initially led me to industrial design. As my journey progressed, I ventured UX/UI design, utilizing Adobe Suite to create digital and print assets, and employing tools such as Sketch, Figma, Framer, and HTML/CSS/JS to develop website and app mockups. Leveraging my knowledge and background, I am confident in my ability to address intricate problems by employing design thinking, industrial design, graphic design, and user experience design methodologies. My ultimate aim is to meet or surpass business objectives and demands, while simultaneously providing users with gratifying and intuitive experiences.
Design process
I employ a combination of Design Thinking, UX methodologies, analytical business strategies, and technology forecasting to craft distinctive and innovative experiences for products and services. It encompasses a brainstorming phase where the primary issue is identified, and pertinent information is gathered to form a comprehensive case study. This is followed by extensive research to construct user personas, which serve as a guiding framework for creating questionnaires, conducting surveys, usability testing, and interviews to uncover users' needs. With the information gathered, I start with my design process by generating ideas and progressing through the stages of low, mid, and high-fidelity wireframes to create prototypes. The final phase entails developing a user journey and experience map, complemented by a functional prototype that demonstrates how the product and/or services address the core problem at hand.
