About this service

Summary

When I offer product design services, I focus on every stage of the design journey, from discovery to post-launch support. My deliverables include everything from user research and wireframes to polished high-fidelity designs and reusable design systems, ensuring a seamless and user-centered experience. I also prioritize close collaboration with developers, usability testing, and creating iteration plans to deliver a product that not only meets your needs today but evolves with your goals over time.

Process

Discovery Phase

1. User Research: Conduct in-depth research to understand user needs, behaviors, and pain points, delivering personas, journey maps, and a comprehensive findings report.

2. Stakeholder Workshops: Facilitate workshops to align on business goals, product vision, and project priorities, summarizing insights into actionable outcomes.

3. Product Roadmap: Develop a strategic roadmap highlighting key features, prioritized milestones, and timelines to guide product development.

Concept Phase

4. Wireframes: Create low- to mid-fidelity wireframes that outline the structure and functionality of key screens.

5. Information Architecture: Define the user flow, site map, and navigation structure to ensure a logical and intuitive experience.

6. Concept Validation: Test early concepts with users, gather feedback, and deliver a report summarizing validation insights and next steps.

Design Execution

7. High-Fidelity Designs: Design polished, pixel-perfect screens and interactive prototypes that accurately represent the final product.

8. Design System: Build a reusable design system with components, style guides, and accessibility guidelines to ensure consistency across the product.

9. Responsive Design: Deliver designs optimized for various devices, ensuring seamless usability across desktop, tablet, and mobile breakpoints.

10. Interactive Animations: Design micro-interactions and animations to enhance usability and create a delightful user experience.

Handoff to Development

11. Developer Handoff: Provide annotated designs, export assets, and share collaboration-ready files through tools in Figma.

12. Collaboration: Work closely with developers in weekly syncs to address questions, track progress, and conduct visual QA during implementation.

Testing & Iteration

13. Usability Testing: Conduct usability tests, A/B tests, and incorporate user feedback to refine the design for improved outcomes.

14. Analytics Dashboards: Offer recommendations for tracking user behavior through analytics and heatmaps to inform future design decisions.

Post-Launch Support

15. Design Documentation: Deliver editable design files with detailed documentation to empower internal teams to maintain and evolve the product.

16. Iteration Plan: Provide a prioritized list of enhancements and set up a feedback loop to ensure continuous product improvement post-launch.
