Digital Orderbook
Meijer
Accurate ordering is a key metric in any grocery store's fresh departments. When I joined the team at Meijer, the stores were still using a paper binder to track invetory, estimate need, and order more product. This system led to inaccurate orders, and a lot of wasted time and products. Working closely with the product owner and the store ordering teams, I intereviewd the users, built features to integrate with their current processes, tested prototypes in real-world situations, and collaboated with the developement teams to deliver the product to the store team members.

Cost Estimator
Priority Health
A leading driver of calls at any health insurance company is for the costs of services, and how to make sure your provider is in-network. The Cost Estimator tool allowed members of Priority Health to lookup how their plan's benefits would be applied to hunderds of services and medications at specific locations. As the lead UX designer, I talked to users, built testable prototypes, and worked with the agile development team to build new features. I wokred closely with the Product Owner, subject matter experts, and the customer service teams to ensure the tool was easy to use and accurate.

100 Year Application
Steelcase
For their 100th anniversary, Steelcase wanted to create a unique experience to interact with content from their 100 Dreams website.

I was the user experience, production, and technology lead on this project.

Presentation Survey Tool
Crowe Horwath
To help the performance team at Crowe with their annual leadership meeting a tool was needed to create a conversation between the audience and their new leader. The tool we created connected to a server to let users answer questions on their mobile phones or computers and instantly see answers onscreen. The presentation view would dynamically create graphs and visuals as people responded. I was the technical director and developer of the team.

Monthly Report Generator
Crowe Horwath
Communicating performance statistics to a team can be a dry process, an infographic can communicate much more effectively than a spreadsheet alone. To help their team create a monthly status report, we created a tool that they could drop an Excel file onto and it would automatically generate a pdf infographic. I built the application using Javascript and runs as a packaged desktop application.
