Method

How I work

Right now, I am taking a UI design course and learning design fundamentals directly through the class. I start from real user needs, then iterate through sketches, wireframes, prototypes, and quick feedback.

1. Understand

I begin by clarifying the context, goals, and user needs before proposing a solution.

2. Design

I explore multiple options with wireframes and mockups to compare clarity, hierarchy, and accessibility.

3. Validate

I use feedback, heuristic evaluation, and simple testing to refine the interface before moving forward.
