Hi, I’m Joy!
My career first began in healthcare and science, where I honed my skills in empathy, problem-solving, clinical research, and understanding human behavior. My unique perspective allows me to bridge the gap between user needs and innovative solutions. Let’s connect!
My approach to design
Collaborative Multidisciplinary Approach:
Working in healthcare requires being able to work with diverse teams to improve a patient’s outcome and care. This has equipped me with the ability to collaborate effectively with clients/stakeholders and design team, mirroring the cross-functional nature of UX design.
Empathy & User-Centered Design:
My hands-on patient care experiences gives me a deep understanding and ability to prioritize user needs to ensure my designs are tailored to real-world problems, accessible, and resonate with a diverse audience.
Evidence-Based Design:
With my science and clinical research background, I approach UX design with data-driven methods to inform, validate, and improve design decisions.
