Overview
In this internship I was able to collaborate with other UX designers, engineers, and stakeholders. I focused on analyzing user interviews and redesign analytical data, landing pages, dashboards, and libraries. I loved being a part of a team where we worked closely together and continuously gave constructive feedback.
Key Takeaways
Users First
Starting at the route of the problem will help you find the direction you need to follow. Listening to the users and analyzing what they mean can change everything that was expected. Learn to listen and learn to understand.
Communication
Learning to communicate efficently with not only your direct team, but with developers and project managers will allow the business to save time and costs. Confusion and misunderstanding can lead to extending deadlines and effecting other teams.
Community
I had an amazing opportunity to volunteer with other employees & our CEO to help build up a middle schools garden. We were able to create a beautiful space by painting benches, planting vegetables, and so much more. Being involved in various activities help form a strong community and great connections.
