The experience is all that matters.
With more and more commercial UX examples being released every day, users expect the same level of experience design in your product or service. Don't disappoint them instead advocate for UX design within your organization. Evidence indicates that UX is good for both your customers and your bottom line.
As a UX Designer for both enterprise systems and consumer advertising markets, I've developed a strong sense of what it takes to achieve success. Part of that is providing compelling concrete UX and UI deliverables to the larger team and stakeholders. With an understanding of current technology trends and a background in user centered product design, this allows me to communicate effectively with customers and colleagues in both individual and group settings.
The user is involved throughout the design and development of the product.
A centric process is always iterative and targeted towards the needs of the user.
The end user is concerned with usability and functionality of the final product.
The design addresses the experience. Now demonstate it to everyone.
Good experience design is planning to solve for a wide range of user centric problems when designing software. As a Design Lead its my responsibility to create artifacts in a variety of forms that are available to the project team and business stakeholders. All project goals are different and therefor require a custom approach to which assets are deemed "required". Below are some of my areas of expertise.
It all starts here. The proven way to get your strategy down includes creating Consumer Journey Maps, User Stories, Personas, Ecosystem Map, Competitive Audit and Stakeholder Interviews.
Ideation is quick concepting. Concepting methods would include Brainstorming, Moodboards, Storyboards, User Flow, Task Analysis and Taxonomies.
I have conducted Content Audits, Heuristic Analysis, creating a features Roadmap, along with writing Use Cases and User Scenarios.
The experience of the product is so important. Getting it right involves using UI Sketches, Sitemaps, Wireframes, Prototypes, Usability Test, Card Sorting, A/B Testing, Eyetracking and Heatmapping.
When I was visiting the Hermitage Museum I had the chance to view a collection of beautiful art. Some of the pieces were very inspiring while others were not. I realized then that Art was very subjective, unlike Design were it has to solve a real world problem and ultimately work.

I never tire of pushing the work to be better. In addition to project work, I will help to shape the User Experience approach, lead as well as share with other interaction designers.
