Nice to meet you, I'm Jade.
My love for researching social trends, psychology and cultural influence was born from my studies as a history major during my Bachelor's Degree. My passion for research and curation continued throughout my post graduate studies in UX Design at Humber College.
I have participated in multiple design challenges including having been selected to take part in the KEA Copenhagen School of Design's global design workshop in Denmark.
I have 2 years of managerial experience, implementing and delivering exceptional service design to customers.
I speak French having been in the immersion program and graduating from the core French program in Toronto.
My Design Practice
As a dedicated UX/UI designer, I am driven by my passion for crafting exceptional digital products that seamlessly align user-centered designs and principles with business objectives. My approach revolves around employing selective research methods to discover data-driven insights that are used to form compelling narratives that connect with users.
I rigorously test and iterate on my design concepts to ensure that the final design exceeds client and user expectations. Through this holistic approach, I consistently aim to contribute to the development of innovative and user-friendly solutions that resonate with both clients and their target audiences.
Adaptability
Projects are constantly changing when you're uncovering new insights. I quickly adapt to meet new expectations and follow new project directions.
Being bold
I am an adventurous creative who embraces new ideas, practices and approaches. By doing so, I am involved in the latest techniques that have the potential to reveal the heart of each project.
Curiousness
Only with consistent curiosity can we begin to understand the 'bigger picture'. I am constantly asking 'why?' to get closer to the most relevant UX insights.
Personability
I value building strong teams rooted in trust. To me, it's important that everyone I work with feels they can voice their thoughts and opinions.
Thoroughness
When in doubt... follow the data! Everything should be tied back to insights and discoveries. They are the guidepost that direct the project.
When I'm not UX-ing...
I collect R&B/jazz records and was the producer and host of a radio show in Vancouver, B.C.
I have over 25 years of dance experience having attended an arts high school to pursue the art of movement.
I love to travel because it exposes me to new cultures, ideas and people who allow me see the world from new perspectives.
I am often outdoors and can be found by a lake in every season.
I studied cello and piano which I continue to play to this day.
Thank you for your time!
