UX Design
Alliance iS HPLC System
Waters Corporation
Quality Control (QC) labs face strict compliance, data quality requirements as well as tight timelines and budgets. They also face staff turnover and complex user interfaces.
I discovered and defined user needs and requirements with stakeholders by leading a variety of research methods such as user interviews, card sorts, journey mapping, and surveys.
The touch screen user interface features live system monitoring, step-by-step on-screen guidance, traceability, and intuitive issue resolution.
In an agile environment, I designed, validated and reiterated upon designs through usability testing with users.
I documented detailed design specifications for software developers, and established the company's touch screen kiosk design standards.
After launch, the Alliance iS HPLC System reduced human errors by up to 40% based on Waters' market research.
Xcellerex™ Magnetic Mixer
Cytiva
Manufacturing cleanrooms face strict regulations, product loss from use error, complex installation, and extensive training. These issues can be exaggerated by high turnover.
To address these problems, we designed the Xcellerex magnetic mixer.
I led design of the touch screen user interface and collaborated with industrial designers and automation engineers for smooth integration.
Before designing, I collaborated with the team through discovery and definition of user needs and requirements through journey mapping.
Through planning, moderation, and analysis of findings in usability testing, I iterated to improve the design throughout the project timeline.
My Care Health Portal
Concept
The My Care Health Portal is a centralized way for patients to communicate with their physicians, view lab results, schedule appointments, and manage prescriptions.
Based on personas and user requirements, I sketched different pages which I then created as wireframes. Next, I created a style guide and design system with reusable components. I designed high-fidelity pages and linked them to create a clickable prototype. Lastly, I reiterated based on usability testing.
Master Data Management
Tamr
Data unification is a major challenge for customers. Data scientists spend a majority of their time locating data, unifying it from multiple sources, and cleaning it all before they can even begin their real work. This is where Tamr's Master Data Management tool comes in. It enables companies to unify data at a large scale.
I collaborated with a team of other designers to create this application.
We began by sketching pages to meet user needs provided by Tamr. Next, we created wireframes for each page and reiterated based on design reviews. I created a style guide and design system for the team to utilize throughout pages. We then designed high-fidelity pages and linked them together to create a clickable prototype. Finally, we conducted usability testing and reiterated based on findings.
This project was part of my graduate studies at Bentley University. The company Tamr served as the client throughout the duration of the semester.
ACCL Marketing
Freelance website design
I designed this website for my client ACCL Marketing to be sleek, modern, and professional to appeal to their target audience.
To ensure ease of finding information, I began by establishing the website's information architecture. The website layout is minimalistic to draw attention to important elements. I created a style guide with colors and typography.
United Way of Central Massachusetts
Freelance website design
As a design consultant, I redesigned the United Way of Central Massachusetts website for their 100th anniversary.
To begin, I re-established the information architecture of the website to improve usability. I mocked up the various pages within the website. Within the content, I simplified verbiage and established type hierarchy. Additionally, I utilized United Way's branding guidelines to ensure cohesion. View the website here
ProFit
Concept
ProFit is a health and fitness application concept I designed from sketches to clickable prototype. I began by creating personas, task flows, and journey maps. Next, I created a style guide and began wireframing the different screens. Lastly, I created a high-fidelity, clickable prototype and reiterated after analyzing findings from usability testing.
Triage
MassDiGI
Project Triage is a post-disaster triage simulator to train first responders in different disaster scenarios. This is a Live Studio Project for MassDiGI in collaboration with the Yale Medical Group.
I designed the user interface to provide progress and feedback to the player. In addition, I created and implemented 3D character and environment art. The simulation was created using Unity Engine.
