CV

Wells Fargo & Co. Senior UX Designer / October 2021 - present

Going through a complete tech stack and UX redesign, I lead all UX workshops and Enterprise Design and UX for hi-profile, complex, internal bank-facing products. 

Work closely with business, development, and our users to establish an intuitive company-wide UX, a consistent design system, and integrated multiple products within a unified holistic experience.

Present and communicate the thought processes, design, and UX rationale based on empirical evidence, user interviews, and feedback via rapid prototyping. I design for and adhere to accessibility / ADA compliance throughout.  

Still in development, time will be saved by streamlining multiple complex workflows into one unified experience spanning multiple bank products. No more need to train users on different inconsistent systems. Costs will be saved by deploying universal updates, reducing unsatisfied employee turnover, and less technical debt. 

Bank of America  Senior UX Designer / October 2021 - November 2022

In this highly collaborative, fast-paced environment, I was able to define, create, and maintain the UX vision and strategy of Enterprise-based bank software.

Completed a total UX audit of underperforming internal software. Performed user research and analysis, heuristic evaluation, usability testing, and documented findings to make UX recommendations.

Aligned internal users with user-centered design experiences that ensure they can perform their best work in more customized, intuitive, innovative, engaging, and time-saving ways.

Used story-telling skills with the ability to get buy-in from project stakeholders, technology partners, and executive leadership. Synthesized all user research to construct sketches, wireframes, rapid prototypes, and the complete end-to-end experience.

By delivering functional react-based designs, we saved time and costs by drastically reducing development time and effort.

AT&T & DIRECTV  Senior UX Designer / September 2019 - October 2021

In this strategic role, we were constantly thinking about better ways to solve the right problem, by possessing the curiosity and desire to connect and learn from our diverse customer base.

I completed end-to-end strategic UX for the acquisition of mobile e-commerce and streaming video: Upper funnel to post-purchase. My role was to own projects from start to finish by using existing user behavior, data, personas, user interviews, and usability testing.

Used the entire Design Thinking process with perpetual validation of revised experiences to make sure we are creating implementable, human-centered design concepts.
