Overview

During the Fall of 2023, I had an amazing opportunity to work for BMO that lasted 8 months. In my role as a UX Design Intern, I was engaged in several projects that demanded seamless collaboration across various teams, including Research, Digital Core, Capital Markets T&O, B2C Collections, and more. Respecting my nondisclosure agreement (NDA), I can not share the specific details of my project. Please reach out to me for more details.

Objective

  • Effectively managing ambiguity inherent in innovation projects
  • Demonstrating active and effective collaboration between stakeholders to meet project milestones
  • Cultivating a project management skillset and learning the importance of highlighting key actions and deliverables to mobilize team members
  • Demonstrating adaptability and quick thinking in a fast-paced environment, seamlessly providing support to team members amid evolving project requirements

Takeaways

  1. Coming from a background where most of my design skills came from an academic environment, it is very easy to go overboard and create something that is nearly impossible to implement. From working with developers and business stakeholders I've learned to create designs that balance feasibility and aesthetics.
  2. Having the chance to work with both Acer and NTUH provided valuable exposure to interdisciplinary collaboration. This experience enhanced my ability to communicate effectively across different teams with varying expertise, fostering a more holistic approach to problem-solving.
  3. When designing an ecosystem that includes both mobile and web applications, I learned that it is very important to fully understand who the users are and think about how the data is shared and visualized between the two systems.

Let's start with Conceptualization

Prototyping

Iteration

After creating the first version of the prototypes the next step is to iterate on my designs... but how? As some other UX designers may have experienced before, sometimes it is very hard push PMs and executives to allocate time and effort to usability test.

How did I overcome this? I was able to utilize AI to help me identify hot spots where users would gravitate towards and some places they did not.

OPTIMAL CLARITY = 58% (BELOW AVERAGE) 

Results

While serving as a great tool to explain design rationale to stakeholders. Through this iterative process, I was able to get continuous feedback and improve my designs.

In the end, the results look something like this...
