User Experience for Social Good and User Interaction Design

Role
UX & Interaction Designer, User Researcher

Description

This user experience design for social good is a free, reference my hands-on approach in concept design, brainstorming, sketching, prototyping, testing, and iterating on ideas.  Exert is a community-driven app that connects sports enthusiasts of all levels by facilitating peer-to-peer skill-sharing and empowers individuals to achieve their fitness goals without the financial burden of coaching or training.



Takeaway
Through this project, I gained valuable insights into the design thinking process and the importance of user-centered design. I learned how to conduct effective user research, identify key user needs, and create designs that meet those needs. I also developed skills in prototyping and usability testing, which helped me iterate on my designs and improve the user experience. Additionally, I gained a deeper understanding of accessibility principles and the importance of creating inclusive designs.

The designed app has the potential to impact the sports community by fostering connections between individuals, promoting skill development, and creating a supportive environment. By providing a platform for peer-to-peer learning and community building, the app can empower users to achieve their fitness goals and lead healthier lifestyles.
