RECENT WORK

UX / UI DESIGN

SKYE MASTERCARD WEBSITE

Project – Migrate and consolidate 2 cards product websites to one new brand, Skye and promote its new features. 
​
Role – Lead UX/UI designer, led the creative and brand direction, edited content to meet UX standards and worked closely with product managers, developers and business analysts to deliver a best in class website from discovery, testing to final delivery. 

Problems/Challenges – Key milestones would often change to meet business needs, so I'd work closely with the product managers and business analyst to gain more visibility and confirm dates to deliver on time. 

​Results – Skye Mastercard launched successfully in July 2018. I formed positive and strong relationships with all teams and I am proud to be a part of a product that is comparable to leading credit cards.

'IAMEE' APP PROTOTYPE

Winner – #RHoK Random Hacks of Kindness, Winter 2017 (hackathon). 

Project – Create a mental health app prototype aimed at teenage girls to promote positive mental health awareness. 

Role – Lead UX/UI designer, working closely with other UX designers and developed the app look and feel.

Problems/Challenges – Develop an app prototype in 2 days not worked with the developers, project manager and UX designers before or knowing people's skill sets. We formed relationships quickly, worked in an agile environment to meet key deliverables every hour.

​Results – Our collaborative team approach, led by a strong and motivational leader, Suyin Kee (see 'What My Peers Say'), who helped us win the Random Hacks of Kindness hackathon, Winter 2017, where we presented a working app prototype for mental health awareness.

'BURN' APP PROTOTYPE

Project – Develop a junk food/workout calculator app in 10 weeks. 

Role – UX/UI designer, conducted user research, information architecture, rapid low to high fidelity prototyping, user testing and iteration. 

Problems/Challenges – When conducting user interviews, it was a challenge to keep the interview short, while trying not to lead the interview through bias. To overcome this, I iterated the questions after each interview so by the 5th interview, the questions flowed better and allowed for more insightful, succinct answers.

​Results – The 'Burn' app prototype is the first app prototype I've developed from discovery to prototype stage. The insights and learnings I'd gained provided me with a strong user experience foundation which I have continued to improve through my UX research methods and refine my UI design in my future projects.

WHAT MY PEERS SAY

SUYIN KEE
R&D Product Manager, Brain & Mind Centre (USYD) Health Tech

I had the pleasure of working with Ermi over a few months where we built out a mental health application aimed at developing positive mental well-being habits in young girls. Ermi played a leading role in shaping the UX and UI design, alongside 3 other UX designers. She is highly skilled at her craft and has an amazing eye for thoughtful design. We consistently received great user feedback on the look and feel of our app. Ermi was also extremely committed to everything she put her hands on, and will never deliver anything short of top quality. She is focused, able to lead, and practiced deep empathy when designing for the girls. I have no doubt Ermi will be a valuable asset to any UX team.

Studio Manager, Scarlett Design International Ltd

Ermi is one of the most articulate and knowledgeable designers I have ever come across. Not only does Ermi have extremely strong print and digital skills, as well as a fantastic portfolio, but she is also an excellent communicator, which is an attribute many designers do not possess.

​I would highly recommend Ermi to work with and I would love to work with her again one day.

MARDI BARNES
Director + Social Media Strategist, Scoop Social

Ermi is a dedicated worker that radiates style and class. Her professionalism, manner on the phone, interaction with colleagues and staff is evident at all times. Ermi is a quick learner and keen to jump into any challenge that is set before her. Ermi also freelanced with Crunch Design on a very challenging and horrible project in which she breezed through without a hitch. 

I would recommend Ermi to any employer, it would be hard to find a better designer anywhere!
