Common questions

Your user-first design approach?

I always start with the user, using a mix of qualitative and quantitative research to build a clear picture of who I am designing for. Immersive empathy exercises, such as persona building and journey mapping, allow me to step into users' shoes. By balancing this empathy with data-driven insights, I craft designs that not only solve problems but also delight and engage the user at every touchpoint.
