EXPERIENCE

Home Depot— UX Researcher

July 2018 – Present

I cross collaborate with interdisciplinary teams on the Paint, Home Depot Application and Mobile Web  squads to validate designs and generate ideas for new features. I run in-person and remote moderated tests as well as unmoderated remote usability tests, then present the results to stakeholders. 

Since I have been working with the app team, we were awarded #1 Retail App by Forrester for 2019! Our new filter design has seen a 30% increase with filter interaction, 49 bps lift in percentage of product detail page visits, and 13 bps conversion increase for customers who interacted with the new sort and filter. App 1-Click Checkout has also been highly successful and brought in 52% of cross-channel instant checkout orders.

Other projects I have been involved in are the redesign of the Project Color and Home Depot paint experiences. We’ve worked on the UI for the See It In My Space and Color Match, as well as a Pinterest integration and a Color Style Quiz
