Kristin Morin
Senior UX Designer & Content Strategist
While I live and work in the entrepreneurial space at the moment,
I’m always eager to consider an interesting UX design challenge.
Here are some things that pique my interest…
Professional strengths
Facilitating innovation
Encouraging coworkers from all disciplines to envision the future solutions to customers’ needs
User research
Helping guide new research and analyzing existing research provides a wealth of insight
Data visualization
Robust products yield complex customer data that needs to be analyzed to present effectively
Project pitches
Innovation-focused projects need buy-in, and that means crafting a compelling pitch
UX writing
UX writing and content strategy lay the groundwork for accurate and effective design solutions
Designing help
Helping users isn’t just a manual, it’s a philosophy of designing guidance throughout a product
Interaction design
“Intuitive” design comes from knowing when to follow patterns vs. when form must follow function
Project organization
As a former project manager, I naturally gravitate toward self-starting and clearing project roadblocks
My Values
Here are the key things that matter to me in all of my projects.
Insight
Balancing a true understanding of the user’s needs and problems with the goals and objectives of the business builds the foundation of all worthwhile products. Meaningful product design relies on an insightful, research-based understanding of both.
Collaboration
If you’ve got outdated corporate silos and archaic red tape, you should expect me to challenge them. Building the right product for customers means not just collaborating within the team, but seeking insights wherever they exist in the company.
Real content
Part of gathering insight means designing with the real content users will experience and generate with a product. I work with stakeholders until I know I’m using realistic numbers, plausible copywriting, and accurate scenarios.
