Project reflections




It was very much a rewarding and fulfilling experience to work closely with users and to understand their needs and pain points. Throughout the entire process, their feedback informed me of every design decision, and with much trial and error, the project was completed. Their perspectives have enlightened me of some hasty assumptions that I may have made along with the duration of the project, and I was quick to address that. The project has prepared me for what it entails to be a UX Designer, and I’m pleased with my learnings and design outcome. I can’t wait to jump straight to my next UX project!
