My battle tested approach to design

View my full product lifecycle process

  1. Research Phase: Conduct stakeholder interviews, develop user personas and evaluate competitors.
  2. Requirements Gathering: Define use cases, document necessary features and functionality based on user needs.
  3. Prototyping and User Testing: Develop interactive prototypes to simulate user interactions and workflows in order to gather feedback from stakeholders and potential users to refine and improve the proposed UX solution.
  4. Development: Implement using an agile development methodology, allowing for incremental updates and responsiveness to changing requirements.
  5. Launch and Deployment: Deploy the design in phases, starting with a subset of users or specific features to manage risk and gather real-world feedback.
