UX & UI Design
In my past and current roles, I work on designing for both internal and external audiences. My experiences in UX and UI design provide me with an interesting perspective on the design process. In addition to having hands-on UX and UI platform skills (chiefly in Adobe products, Sketch and PowerPoint), I am proficient in HTML, CSS, and am working on my JavaScript.
Outside of my day-job, I am open to working on additional freelance projects. Contact me here if you are interested in working with me.
User Experience Design
For all of my projects, UX design has been included in some capacity. At Teachers Federal Credit Union and Fordham University, I conducted research based on design products to ensure that the product is as useful as possible. UX design is one of my passions and I hope to continue working in this field in the future.
UX at IBM, August 2019 and February- May 2020
At IBM, my main focus is on communication across various discipline teams; this work includes designing, creating and executing internal sites for IBMers.
I structured these communicative sites around user interviews, survey results, focus groups, card sorting, and data. I apply design thinking skills to create internal sites that actually matter to web marketers around the globe.
My main projects have included the Web Discipline and IBM.com Reboot sites, both internal-facing sites for IBMers only.
Remo Haptics App Proposal, May 2018
At Fordham University, my team and I created a hypothetical app for a fitness tracker start-up. Remo creates products that connect fitness trackers to the user’s shoes and a knee brace.
Our goal was to create an app that easily conceptualizes movement data for users. We tested our app with some volunteer participants that workout regularly. More can be read about this project here.
Social Media UX & UI Design
At Consumer Reports, I primarily worked on social media content for CR’s TV Show, Consumer 101 (NBC) and Taller del Consumidor (Telemundo). I designed multi-carded Instagram stories and posts in addition to writing copy for Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Instagram Stories, 2018-2019
These are some examples of Instagram stories I created for Consumer Reports. We used these designs to push engagement with our social media channels and our overall content. I used After Effects, Photoshop and Illustrator.
Highlights Instagram Covers, 2018
I illustrated these covers for CR’s highlight covers on Instagram. These are for the different article categories Consumer Reports has.
Swipe Up Designs, 2019
I worked on new and innovative swipe-up designs during my time at CR. The ultimate goal was to make something new, simple and dynamic as many swipe-up assets are static.
