UX Designer | Emerging Technology | Versatile professional who loves to wear many more hats, if I got to solve design problems everyday
Hello I am Divya! It's great to connect with a talented professional like you. With a Master's in UI/UX Design & Development, I bring a wealth of experience in redefining Product Design, UI/UX Design, and UX Research. Over my 7 years in the field, I've worked across diverse industries including financial services, healthcare, Game design, Conversational Design as well as emerging technologies. My expertise lies in User Research, Journey Mapping, Information Architecture, Heuristic Evaluation, Data Visualization, Service Design, Conversation Design, Product Design, Usability Study, Extended Reality (XR), Wireframing and Prototyping, Qualitative/Quantitative Research, Interaction Design, Content Strategy, User Interface Design, and A/B Testing. What sets me apart is my background in Architecture and Spatial Design, providing a unique perspective in crafting empathetic interfaces. I've successfully applied my skills to B2B, B2C Web/Mobile, AR/VR apps, Financial projects, Service Design, VR Simulation Training, and Game VR/AR projects basically all emerging technologies. Beyond aesthetics, I prioritize usability testing and empathetic user interviews. My journey includes leading transformative projects, like the Virtual Leap project where I enhanced cognitive skills for users aged 60+ through a VR app. Known for innovation, I consistently deliver user-centric designs aligned with organizational goals. Let's collaborate to redefine digital interactions, blending design with functionality, infusing innovation with empathy, and meticulously crafting user experiences into reality. Together, we can bring digital dreams to life!
