Microsoft
UI/UX designer for mobile phone applications. Projects involved designing for WAP and mobile applications, competitive research, establishing design patterns, usability studies, documentation, final asset creation and other related activities.
I worked on the initial Bing iPhone release, then became the lead designer for Bing Maps and Directions. My job is to create a great, intuitive experience to allow people to find themselves. In the literal sense, that is. Maps and Directions user flows can be very complex, and the goal is to make it seamless across many tasks. Also, different clients offer different affordances so the Bing experience must make sense from both the Bing experience and the specific phone OS.
I designed the search results and parts of the home screen and images experience for the first release of the iBing client. A lot of people said that they really liked it... 4+ stars in the App Store.
I designed the Maps and Directions experience for the first release of the Bing client for Android 2x phones. It's in the process of being released, but I'm sure it will be excellently received.
I designed the Windows Mobile 6x Navigation experience. Side note: the XAML for these phones is VERY basic! But a lot of WM6 users were really happy we made it, and it got some pretty nice reviews.
