Bizworks Plus App

Information Architecture (Site Map)
Created an intuitive navigation system to improve comprehension and reduce friction for new users.
User Flows and Drawing Session
Plotted user paths through tasks. Compared competitor flows and incorporated feedback from team brainstorming sessions.
Once organized, I sketch ideas and present them to our UX and functional teams. I explain the problem, research, and proposed solution, which is also a brainstorming session. Team members can comment and contribute ideas. We discuss these ideas to decide on our initial path forward
Wireframes & Lo-fi Prototyping
Mapped multiple user states and flows for testing and review.
Visual Design and Hi-fi Prototyping
Created refined UI with iterative feedback from stakeholders.
Used hi-fi prototypes to align vision across design and development.
After stakeholder approval, the UX and functional teams create a handoff with technical and functional design specifications and documentation links. 
Next Steps
Future efforts include:
• Continued usability testing
• Interviews with new, returning, and regular users
• Focused iteration planning based on metrics
