About Chiara

Hiya, my name is Chiara (chee-r-ah) , I also go by Chi (chee) . My pronouns are she/her/they/them.

I admire human behavior when it comes to their interaction with technology. Learning from people's experiences and making solutions drives me to design intuitive user experiences while being authentic and creative and finding methods to make technology inclusive and accessible for people by thinking this throughout the design process.

I use my front-end development and digital design background to inform my views on improving accessibility issues with designs and development. I enjoy building wireframes and prototypes, conducting usability testing, and architecting user flows .

My Design philosophy

When I design, I think about different types of users and their needs and wants.

Learn from the past to adjust to the present and think of the future.

I am always looking to improve my experience. Like a paved road, as a designer, I will use any data needed to adjust designs to work for the current world and fix mistakes.

My design process

Understand

Gathering as much information about what users value and their experience with a platform or product as well business goals.

Explore

With the data and information gathered, start thinking about how to make the experience while thinking or ways people consume information.

Testing

I will always advocate testing! Gathering information as soon as possible helps see issues and assist with designing solutions.

Materialize

I enjoy assisting in identifying containers and components and HTML structure; this is where my development background comes out and helps conversations with development.

Analyze

Gathering user data to improve and update solutions and automated testing." The original sentence is redundant and repetitively phrasing the same idea multiple times.
