My Process

STEP 1

Understand

Understanding the target audience, their needs, preferences, and behaviors is crucial, conducting user research through surveys.

STEP 2

Analyze

Review data, extract insights, and define the strategy. Begin product planning with workflows, addressing internal and external user journeys.

STEP 3

Ideate

Creative brainstorming and idea generation, where diverse concepts are explored and refined to inspire innovative solutions.

STEP 4

Validate

Generate rapid mockups and tangible prototypes for real user testing to assess whether the design effectively addresses the problem.

STEP 5

Iterate

An ongoing phase in the design process where I fine-tune the UI, gather feedback, launch, test, and repeat as needed for optimal results.

Client Testimonials

Michelle did a beautiful job designing and developing my website! She listened to everything I wanted and created a site that far exceeded my vision and also led to gaining new clientele.  Michelle was always professional and courteous while giving me sound advice.  I will recommend her services to anyone seeking a great web designer!

Carla L.

CEO / Wedding Story

Being a web designer myself, I must say that Michelle’s skills are unmatched. She designed the most beautiful, captivating brand and website, which not only instilled confidence in my company, but in myself too. Thanks to her talents, my company has already grown, to the point that I will also be recommending her services to my clients.

Catherine J.

Founder / Captivate Consulting

Her guidance on creating organized user flows, mastering components, and navigating complex design systems was invaluable. Michelle's expertise in user research and prototyping best practices helped me grasp the entire UX design process. Her enthusiasm and cheerful demeanor made challenging design tasks less intimidating, proving her as an indispensable asset on my design journey.

Joy K.

UX Student

I am not tech or web savvy so the idea of creating a website seemed daunting. Michelle patiently walked me through the process and created a fully functional site that not only met my needs but exceeded my expectations. I “walked” into our first Zoom meeting with just an idea and I now have a logo with a website that is visually stunning and user friendly. I am more than pleased with the result!
