SHARING COLLECTIONS
New Feature
Within our application, there are many customizable lists. One of these lists is tags. These are official tags that update on an annual basis and people usually have more than one list for various purposes. Users requested the ability to share a collection of lists with colleagues and their employees.
​
For this project, we created a user story map to determine the main functions the users needed to complete, a detailed workflow to track the user actions and the system interaction, wireframes to work out the necessary components, and high-fidelity mockups for the design.
The end result was pleased users who saved a significant amount of time when bringing on new employees, annual updates, and distributing new lists.

CREATING TEMPLATES
Feature Enhancement
In our enterprise application, users often had to create a form with much of the same information over and over again. Originally, there were enterprise-level templates, but those did not meet the needs of everyday document creation. We needed a way to create personal templates and office or division-level templates.
​
We created a way for users to make personal folders and individual templates, as well as the ability for supervisors to create division-level folders & templates. This allowed users to save time and meet organizational and division standards.
​
We created a user story map to outline all of the functions that we needed to cover for the users. We then detailed out how those functions would be accomplished in wireframes.
NAVIGATION REDESIGN
Restructured & Refreshed
This project came about as a result of user feedback and UX best practice. We conducted card sorting, surveys, and user interviews that led us to discover the most important issues to users. We created wireframes and discussed them with internal teams to find the best implementation of features. We then did user testing to get final modifications. After nailing down the features and functions, we created high-fidelity mockups, a style guide, and a usage guide. The redesign is currently in development with great communication between UX and development teams.
PROJECT G
Siblings in Design
This project is the sibling project to Navigation Redesign. Project G had a base set of code which we evaluated for completeness.
In the workflows, you'll see the functionality we added in yellow. We also created a document to indicate our confidence level on the stability of the design based on the sibling application development and which components were shared between the two.
ASPIRING DOCS
Promoting Diversity
Association of American Medical Colleges is a large organization comprised of many different aspects that assist pre-med, medical students, and medical teachers attain resources for success.
Aspiring Docs was a portion of the website aimed at increasing diversity in medical education. This project was a redesign of the Aspiring Docs to create a better user experience through information architecture & design, making it easier for students to find resources.
​
We broke down the existing information architecture (IA) and created a new IA to better organize the information, making it easier for users to find the information they needed. We created wireframes to show how the information would cross over pages. We then created a fresh design to focus on the most important information on the page.
ENTITY IDENTIFICATION
Simplifying Data
I was called into this project to improve the user experience. This was an R&D project to test if given multiple data sets, can we extract entities, understand and tag them appropriately, and make meaningful connections.
​​
My role was to ensure the customers had a clear view of the data, data sources, and connections between entities.
​
Based on the original system, I created wireframes to include data visualizations and a simplified view of the data. I also redesigned search results to add the ability to filter and show indicators for additional data.
SEMANTICS
Finding the Connections
The Semantics project was an R&D project to see if we could connect the ideas and identify keywords from a number of corpi in different languages.
​
The project used Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify corresponding concepts between datasets or search based on key concepts and ideas. The information produced was successful, so my job was to present complex data to users in a way that lay-people could understand.
​
I analyzed the data outputs to decide how best to present the data to users. We tested a number of visualizations and textual representations of the concepts and connections. The end result was a mix of organized text data and specific visualizations.
