UX Process

Every day people are using technology in every aspect of their lives. How they interact with your company will determine how successful and productive they can be. We can work together to provide the best user experience possible. Here's what I do as a User Experience (UX) Designer.


Wireframes

High level sketches and wireframes are created for concept illustration. Wireframes will visually define functionality and showcase user workflow interactions.

Prototypes

For detailed projects, protypes are created to further explain specific functionality and menu/navigation options.

Mockups

Next, high quality mockups are created with Photoshop to show the pixel perfect design with images, sample content, and text.

Front-End Development

Using front-end developement techniques the project is built and becomes fully functional.


Portfolio and Work Samples

Console Redesign

SharedVue had an existing console that needed updated, so I worked with the Product Owner and Software Engineer to redesign the console. We started with sketches and wireframes to nail down concepts and layout issues.

Next, I created mockups of the new design and provided very detailed notes and user interaction stories as well as specific style notes (colors, sizes, padding, etc.)

Once the developer had the framework up and running I got into the code to clean up the interfaces and apply new styles to polish the product.



Vendor Syndicated Showcases

IT vendors use the SharedVue platform to syndicate web showcases on partner sites. I was responsible for designing, building, and maintaining these web showcases.


SaaS Platform UI and Design Enhancements

General UI improvements to improve design and usability.

About Me

I graduated early from Radford University with degrees in web development and web design. I moved to Raleigh, NC to start my first job at ROI Revolution as a Google Analytics Web Optimization Specialist. There I was able to apply my web skills and gain working knowledge of web analysis and online marketing. I left ROI Revolution in 2011 and joined the SharedVue Web Production team doing front end development and design for large tech companies. Although I always had a hand in the strategy and overall user experience, I officially transitioned into the UX Designer role at SharedVue in Spring 2014. SharedVue was acquired by Zift Solutions in September 2015, and I am currently the sole UX Designer for the Zift Solutions software platform. My goal every day is to provide an easier, friendlier, intelligible workflow for our users one interface at a time.
