FROM IDEATION TO MARKET - ROAMIES
learning what it takes to turn an application idea into something
get to know me
goal-oriented
work style
- every methodology, every design decision has a goal to be achieved
- keeping goals in mind keeps tasks precise and essential
adaptive
work style
- my ideas are considerate of companies’ goals, scale, time, and team capabilities
- if existing frameworks fall short? time to adapt and improve!
systems-thinker
trait
- every screen exists in a system; what's on the screen is only half the story
- I care about what surrounds it just as much as what's on it
design documentation
is underrated
belief
- documentation makes design sustainable amid the ever-changing requirements, goals and tech
- documentation also helps as a tool for communication across multidisciplinary teams
meticulous
and well-rounded
work style
- delivery is just as important as designing
- I design for stakeholders and developers too, not just users
always trying new things
trait
- skills, techniques, technology, methods, mediums, environments, you name it
- you can never have TOO much knowledge
