With respect to confidentiality, this page provides a high-level view of my UX work and contributions to the product. I’d be happy to discuss my work in greater detail.
MY ROLE
The design team initially brought me on as a UX Visual designer to work closely with and support the UX Information Architect. The U.S.-based design team was comprised of 3 UX designers, an A11y specialist, and Producer. We worked closely with Product Owners in the U.K. and Developers in India.
Task Management examples
Bulk Actions
I partnered closely with the Tasks Product Owner to address adding the 3 most important bulk actions in scope: assigning users, status updates, and deleting.
I worked with an A11y specialist to provide wireframes, annotations, and UI component designs for development.
Reordering
Lists items, sub-lists, tasks, and sub-tasks…users could potentially have hundreds. We introduced a toggle for users to turn on, enabling a drag-and-drop function and eliminating accidental moves.
Microsoft Teams Integration
I was the sole UX Designer partnering with the Desktop/Mobile App Product Owner to deliver the HighQ - Teams Integration.
I did a deep dive into the Microsoft Fluent Design System to deliver annotated wireframes and successfully release the app on schedule. I had ongoing discussions with the TR Branding department during the creation and approval process of app icons that needed to meet both Teams requirements and TR design standards.
