Sketches and Med-Fis
Sketches and wireframes play a crucial role in the UI/UX design process by facilitating early ideation, efficient communication, and user-centered design. Their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ability to uncover design issues early make them indispensable tools for creating successful user interfaces and experiences.
Med-Fis
Using Figma, I translated my first sketches into Mid-fidelity
wireframes.
User Persona
I wanted to form a deeper understanding of the users' goals, needs, experiences, and behaviors. So, I created a few personas for each of our user segments. They were based on
user interviews and surveys, and I kept updating them
throughout the project as I gathered more data. I used these personas whenever we wanted to step out of myself and
reconsider my initial ideas.

Conclusion
In a while, this has been one of the most exiting and knowledge impactful project for me. In summary, research is an essential component of UI/UX design that leads to user-centered, efficient, and successful design outcomes. It guides the design process, validates design choices, and ultimately results in digital products and services that better meet user needs and expectations.
