User Experience
As a digital project manager, I am often called upon to act as a stand-in information architect which has greatly intrigued my interest in this area.
I have developed hands-on skills on the following:
- information architecture
- sitemaps
- low-fidelity wireframes using omnigraffle, powerpoint, sketches
- high-fidelity wireframes using photoshop
- usability testing
I always believe in validating first and code later. It is important to get the requirements and human-computer interaction approach right to avoid expensive roundtrip modifications to a fully developed system. But sometimes, you just gotta do it the agile way.
