UI/UXWhat I did
As both project manager and lead UI/UX designer:
- Used Agile project methodologies, including two-week sprints and product demos every step of the way
- Defined primary CTA/reason for website with HSF team - Open an Account! Everything else on site served that purpose.
- Mapped information architecture and content profile of entire then-current site.
- Reviewed content map with stakeholders and prioritized what stays, what goes, what's new?
- Created 3 user personas, to represent the three identified visitor types.
- Created several user flow maps, based on personas, to verify ease of getting users to primary CTA.
- Designed low-res wire-frames for various landing pages and detail pages, to confirm everything coming forward had a place and layout.
- Reviewed wireframes with stakeholders and other interested parties, who also completed preliminary task flow objectives.
- Designed hi-res layouts for all page templates based on wire-frames.
- Worked with developers as they coded layouts into templates.
- Removed old content, ported existing content, imported new content.
- Set up test environment so stakeholders and review team could perform final goal-oriented task flow challenges.
- With final approvals, launched site into NRECA production.
- Project was delivered on time and on budget.
Note: 1 year after launch, organic and search traffic up 56%, account opens up 30%.
