I work to improve the interaction that takes place with an established or target audience by refining digital products based on user data, research, user engagement and testing.
Research and user intelligence on audience interaction is key to understanding how successful a digital product is and can also give insights on how user interaction with products can be improved.
The Audience
Understanding and identifying your audience can help you and your team focus on successful user engagement.
New features and existing digital products can be tested with the target audience to gauge and explore aspects of user experience and interaction. This can help understand and inform how your digital products perform in the real world.
The User Journey
I create user journeys to enable the target audience find what they need quickly and easily to give a satisfying user interaction and a smooth user experience. This will ensure that users come back to the refined digital product for more and spread the word about a positive experience or service.
I start the process with target audience research which develops into user requirements and goals, sketches build into wire frames which plan the user journey and develop the user flow. Red routes and pain points are identified and the design progresses to a prototype with an iterative design process.
Once stakeholder sign off is achieved the prototype is then user tested with candidates that represent the target audience. Working ahead of production the resulting user research is fed back to the design project team to influence the digital product before coding begins for the new feature.

A Little About UXD
User experience design (UX, UXD or XD) focuses on the process of enhancing your user’s satisfaction with your website or online products. This process involves improving the usability and accessibility of your digital product, website or app.
Good UX design will help encourage and build trust with users which then encourages them to stay with you and helps to build brand loyalty. This process helps to create a lasting, positive impression and experience by supporting existing and future customers.
