A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION THAT YOU MUST KNOW
I am very well ORGANIZED.
Lists are my go to tool for keeping things in order.
I pay great attention to DETAIL in my work.
Little things DO matter.
I am OBSERVANT.
I find inspiration for my design in the natural world in the form of COLORS, SHAPES, TEXTURES, and NATURAL MOVEMENT.
My UX Design Tools of Choice
PAPER - PENCILS - STENCILS
PENS - POST ITS - WHITEBOARDS
AXURE - ADOBE CC That also Includes ADOBE XD
INVISION - SURVEYS - ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDIES
EMPATHY MAPPING - PERSONAS - USER STUDIES
My design process below always tries to include all stakeholders whenever possible. This provides updates to clients, as well as management on process flow. While the adage that "we can't always get what we want...but if you try sometimes you might find you get what you need" during these iteration and brainstorming sessions holds true.
MORE MINDS = GREATER OPPORTUNITY FOR EVOLUTIONARY GROWTH
UX DESIGN IS MORE THAN JUST A PRETTY FACE
Placing the user at the center of design creates new avenues for innovation and structure.
I like that.
MY ROLE AS A UX DESIGNER
PRACTICE EMPATHY
Not just to your users, but to your business partners and co-workers.
Working TOGETHER toward a common goal but keeping constraints in mind is what I do.
BE FLEXIBLE
It is much better to BEND like the reed than snap like the tree in the wind.
I am always open for critique, and use it to EXPAND my horizons and grow as a designer.
BUT WAIT...There's MORE!
I HAVE OTHER EXPERIENCE
Since 2014, I've been working as a digital marketing consultant. I have helped small to medium sized businesses in the Dallas and Austin areas with the following services;
•Social Media Management
•Business Consulting
•Website Design
•Content Writing
•Logo Design
•SEO
•Digital Ad Placement
•Traditional Media Advertising
While I have these skills and they are vital to proper marketing of a product or service, UX design is where I'd like to focus my efforts.
If you have room on your team.
