ABOUT ME
My interest in UX and usability started in 2015 and has developed ever since. I specialize in meeting the end users’ needs in every single interaction with the company, its products and services.
I’m keeping up with the latest trends in webdesign and UX strategies, which makes me able to make the internet look awesome in every situation.
The interdisciplinary education has given me knowledge about every aspect in the process of developing digital concepts and solutions – everything from understanding the business and its objectives to coding the final string.
MY GOAL
My goal is to create user centered experiences and become a well-acknowledged UX designer.
Who am I?
I’m an UX strategist. I’m constantly following the latest trends in webdesign, UX strategies and UX ideologies.
What is user experience to me? First off, it is not about giving the user what she wants. It is about meeting the users needs in every single interaction with the company’s products, services and the company itself.
What do I do?
I assess and understand the user needs, business needs and market landscape and translate them into design requirements.
The extension of this is to translate the company’s concepts and ideas into wireframes and user flows, personas, design prototypes and other awesome UX things.
Guess what. I do that too!
How do I do it?
By researching, testing, listening and drawing.
My favourite tools are pen, paper and Post It’s. I use these when I’m surveying, creating personas and developing.
