User Authentication
User data is a beast, both legally and negotiating for it with users. Whether it's email/password, phone verification, or loyaltyIDs, I've built authentication flows for it.
Digital Advertising
Designing to balance the retailer, the advertiser, and the user is my sweet spot. Ads can't feel intrusive to a user, but they must be tempting enough for users to interact and shop.
Search
Even while being blown up by AI, search design is fairly stable. Ask me about how to improve your search - the problem that felt "solved" years ago.
Areas of Experience
"Talk about owning it!
Em owned the room in our progress report to the Retailer senior leadership team.
She educated them on the purpose of UX, got them thinking forward, and fielded their great questions like a rock star!
The leadership team knows they made the right decision putting her in the room, and Em just drove that point home in a HUGE way!"
CTO
"I love everything Em and her team does.
Near the company's beginning she made all the designs, conducted user testing, and came up with a set of standards we had no clue we needed.
Nowadays, with a whole team, it’s more about managing people, staying up to date on the latest practices, putting out fires, keeping the cost of rework down, keeping up with clients’ and platform needs, and more.
What I'm trying to say is from a developer perspective, we’ve never had as many quality designs and specs as we have now. What we have now is incredible. Thank you."
Lead Android Engineer
"I worked with Em for the first time on the CRL website and realized how amazing she is.
Her wireframes were thorough and thought out, she always had an answer when questioned by the client, and came to every meeting with a positive attitude.
She is complimentary of other's work & efforts, and so well spoken. She possesses many qualities to aspire to!"
