Who should read inspireUX?
This blog is intended for both user experience practitioners as well as anyone involved in product design and development. Often, when creating designs or experiences, it’s easy to forget the “big picture” behind why you’re creating what you’re creating. It’s nice to have a little reminder of how important user experience really is and how it impacts everyone’s everyday lives.
Who am I?
My name’s Catriona Cornett. I am a User Experience Designer with a passion for creating useful, usable, and desirable products and services. My primary interests lie in the areas of Design Strategy, Information Architecture, and Usability. I am currently a User Experience Strategist at The Archer Group, an interactive design agency located in Wilmington, Delaware. Before working at The Archer Group, I was an Information Architect at Vanguard.
I’ve been designing personal websites since I was 12 years old, and always felt there was something special behind design. Like everyone else, I’ve had my share of positive and negative experiences interacting with products and websites. Once I discovered that I could turn improving these experiences into a career, I knew it was the perfect fit for me.
I am a graduate of The Pennsylvania State University with a B.S in Information Sciences and Technology. Previously, I interned at AccuWeather as a web developer and at GE as a project manager and business analyst.
