LEAD UX/UI DESIGNER

timeframe: March 2016 - March 2019

Bluewolf, an IBM Company, is a Salesforce*-partnered agency I learned a lot and really began to push the limits of my knowledge of User Experience Design by teaching it to many different people in different ways.

These are some examples of some of the projects that I've worked on.  They are all based on Salesforce (SF), most on Lightning.

​

The point is to take most care of the information architecture.  In Salesforce  there are so many pieces of information available, so you have to be considerate where and how you place it to avoid overwhelming the users.  Below is some high level information and wireframes of the more complex projects.  I love working on internal systems; the complexity and care in each project makes this job extremely fun and rewarding for me.

​

*For those that don't know very much about SF and SF Lightning, it's a very complex cloud-based CRM that many companies implement internally to better track their sales processes, but because of how useful the tracking is it is also being utilized for many other quite different things to CRM.  As well, especially in Lightning, there is a decent amount of restriction on what you can do out of the box, and doing things custom typically takes a lot of work and requires even more upkeep as they (SF) have new releases.  In other words, a lot of planning and problem solving is needed to design an intuitive system that isn't overly customized.

My Role: Research the various groups in charge of different support systems and topics, understand each of their needs and the steps they take, and create a global template to work across all or most support desks, while also creating a way for people to self-help and create cases when needed. Worked with 1 other designer.

​

Users

Support users - Want to help, have a lot of systems to deal with, not all have English as first language or clear pathway. 

Employee users - Want to help themselves when they can, would like updates on their case when they create one.

​
