I'm an AI-focused UX Designer, 4+ years of experience. I turn scattered needs and messy requirements into experiences built specifically for the person using them, because good design disappears into the experience.

How AI Fits My Workflow

Design Systems

→

↓

Storybook is connected directly to Claude Code, so components get built and maintained by prompting Claude Code itself — keeping code and design system docs in sync.

Discovery & Analysis

→

↓

Structuring the client brief/PRD into a Design Requirement Document — scenarios, use cases, and edge cases included. Once a feature ships, analytics get summarized and prompted to flag anomalies worth digging into.

Research & Strategy

→

↓

Competitive analysis and research planning move faster — synthesizing qualitative data, summarizing findings, and flagging gaps worth exploring further.

User Flow

→

↓

Flows get created in FigJam AI and critiqued by Claude for gaps — checked before moving into higher-fidelity design.

Concept to Prototype

→

↓

Early concepts move fast in Lovable or v0 to align stakeholders on direction. Once high-fidelity design is ready, Figma Make imports it and builds a working prototype using brand guidelines.

Design Review & Copy

→

↓

Multiple high-fidelity options get built, then evaluated by AI against user goals, constraints, and brand guidelines to filter down to the strongest direction. Placeholder text gets replaced with real, contextual copy — so designs are reviewed the way they'll actually appear to users.

Visual Assets

→

↓

Visuals get generated by feeding in brand guidelines, color palette, and use-case requirements — keeping output on-brand and purposeful rather than generic.
