Capabilities
I'm thorough, analytical, outspoken, dedicated, inquisitive, and growth-minded. I have a well-rounded skill set—ranging from research plans to asset generation, high-level strategy to detailed design. I eagerly contribute to user research, adoption strategy, feature development, product requirements, information architecture, content models, wireframes, interaction design specs, prototypes, user testing, and more. I’m especially skilled at synthesizing business and user research data into product strategies, product requirements, and design pillars as well as designing thorough, deliberate, and thoughtful wireframes with detailed documentation. I have a background in graphic design and can easily do visual production design work when needed, but I much prefer to leave the visual design itself to talented folks who specialize there.
Experience
I have been at Fjord (formerly Chaotic Moon) for 4.5 years, where I have gained significant experience in platform design, mobile apps, and web applications for enterprise, retail, games, and more. I have designed for Responsive Web, iOS, Android, Windows, VR, and TV interfaces. I’ve worked directly with developers and solution architects, content designers, motion designers, and visual designers. I attended Nielsen Norman Group trainings on user testing and creative ideation.
When I first came to Chaotic Moon, I built the technical production department from scratch, managing 2-5 production designers responsible for design specifications and asset generation. The department quickly increased the efficiency the design and development teams, increased the quality of our builds, reduced the need for design changes, and became a key differentiator for the firm.
Giving Back
Because I’m passionate about Girls in STEM, I also voluntarily served as the Community Outreach Lead at Fjord, organizing tech workshops for Girl Scouts and young latinas as well as events that promote volunteerism and diversity awareness.
