Dona Das phone numbers
I am an empathetic UX/UI designer who is passionate about accessibility design. My fashion design background allows me to analyze and develop solutions with a data and research-informed approach. I want to create a digital environment that addresses the needs of the broadest range of users possible as I believe "Accessibility is not an added feature, it is a feature." I am proficient in Figma. I have executed end-to-end UX/UI design processes for projects from the user research phase through UI design, wire framing, low to high-fidelity prototyping, usability testing, iteration, and stakeholder presentation, worked fully remotely with teams using Agile methodologies and iterative development. The latest mobile application that me and my team designed was for an Australian pet company called Upilio where we redesigned the Onboarding and Meal Planner features and gave the app a completely new aesthetic look. I dived into my role to empathize with users and understand how I can support and enable our team to make better decisions which aligns with the company's strategic direction.I have participated in 3 Hackathons so far where I got the opportunity to work with Developers, Data Scientists and other UX Designers.The 2nd Hackathon that I had participated was a Global Hackathon organized by TH.0 and our team won the 3rd position.
