Discover

I led a complete cross-platform redesign and overhaul of the apps. Our main challenge was to make it quick and easy for users to download the app (it had to remain light for those on mobile data traveling from abroad) and fast to purchase the right ticket for the customer to purchase on the station platform with minimal investment required to learn the app.

Design

My professional interactions are based on honesty, transparency, and communication. One of my main strengths is true versatility with contemporary design: a nod to current trends but without being a slave to fashion. Equally, as a User Experience leader, I employ process, empathy, best practice, and gather real user data to guide direction.

Data is the primary starting point for driving decisions. Then we consider how it works. What it looks like. Information Architecture. Journey mapping. Wireframing. Prototyping. Testing. UI Design. Testing again. Post-launch analysis. Then continually refine and improve to fully craft our product.

Notes
  • Both quote blocks for the navbar & footer are global blocks. Edit the content of the ones on the main page, and that will update the rest of them throughout your site.
  • The font used is Inter. Select it from your Super Options page. Other fonts that can work well with this template are Epilogue, Public Sans, and Space Grotesk.
  • Notion toggles are hidden by default. To unhide them, paste the CSS below to the bottom of your snippet injection box in your Super site settings:
  • <style>
      .notion-toggle {
        display: block !important;
      }
    </style>
  • To change the text or background color, use this:
  • <style>
    	:root {
    	  --color-text-default: #fff !important;
    		--color-bg-default: #000 !important;
    	}
    </style>
    Change #fff or #000 to any colors you'd like
