Hi, I'm Vered. UX Designer and UI Developer.
I aim to make the world a better place through technology and nonstandard education.

ABOUT

Where the story begins

Born and raised in Jerusalem, Israel, I focused on education and non-profit work in Israel and from 2011, in the USA.
I transitioned to Web Development in 2016, leaving a great job to pursue a dream of making a difference through technology. I started as a self-taught developer, acquiring knowledge from a variety of available online tools.
I participated in a 12-week Web Development Bootcamp, Founders and Coders, where I was also selected to lead and mentor the following cohort.
While living in the U.S. and currently, back in Israel, I work as a UX Designer and UI Developer for the tech company - Aunalytics.

What do I do?

As a User Experience Designer, I believe in user-centered design, in asking challenging questions, in thinking of ways to make interfaces more intuitive, easier to use, and better designed.
As a User Interface Developer, I translate designs to user-facing platforms, built in clean, reusable code, while always aiming for best practices in my code.

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN

Project 1: User Experience Research: TheraDeck

We worked on a card-based mobile application, intended to guide young people dealing with anxiety and depression.
While Thinking of how to motivate our users to read through the decks of cards, I conducted research to understand how reward systems work in the mobile application world.

I then turned the research results into a design, making use of the insights we gathered to encourage our users to use the app regularly.

Project 2: Datasets Redesign

While redesigning a complex tool, we first tried to map the tool's architecture, with all its features and available actions.

We used user research methods as surveys and interviews to get the user's prespective and proirotize the different parts of the tool.

Combining the research and user input, we created low and high fidelity interactive mockups for implementation.
