UpGuard is a cyber security platform focusing on visibility of internal, external, and 3rd party risk. I came in as the first and only product designer and grew the team to five while being 100% hands on. Additionally I:
Created and executed a UX vision and strategy
Pioneered a user research and testing program in order to understand and anticipate user needs
Created a design system of intuitive interactions ensuring a consistent experience across the suite
Created user flows, wireframes, prototypes, animations, and mockups for entire product suite
Speced more complicated components and interactions that couldn’t be fully captured by a prototype
Collaborated across timezones (with Australia mostly)
Created and oversaw the evolution of the UpGuard visual identity
Collaborated with all departments in order to optimize end-to-end customer experience
Executed corrective redlining
Cultivated a design culture including a six week Design Symposium course for marketers and sales people
