Portfolio – A Live UX Case Study

Introduction

Brief introduction explaining the portfolio is a live, interactive case study. This is an experiment in UX—the portfolio itself is a demonstration of user-centered design principles. It's designed to evolve based on real-time user feedback.

What You Need to Know:

Story Mode vs. Extended Mode

Story Mode: A streamlined version with key takeaways.
Extended Mode: A comprehensive breakdown with research, iterations, and reflections.
Users can toggle between them seamlessly without losing their place.

The Survey – Live User Feedback

UX is all about iteration based on user feedback.
This portfolio includes a built-in survey that lets users provide feedback as they navigate.

What Should A Portfolio Be

A strong UX portfolio needs to be clear, navigable, and engaging, balancing case studies and personality.

Work vs Play – Showcasing My Skills & Personality

A portfolio isn’t just about work—it’s also about who I am as a designer and creative thinker.

About Me – Defining My Identity as a Designer

This section provides a personal connection, making my portfolio feel human rather than just a collection of work.

Defining the Problem

As a beginner UX designer, my biggest challenge is not having real-world work experience to showcase. Instead of just presenting university projects or redesigns, I needed to create something unique—a portfolio that not only displays my skills but actively demonstrates my UX thinking in real-time.

The Challenge: Lack of Real-World Experience & The Need to Stand Out

Instead of just presenting work, my portfolio becomes a UX case study.
It shows my design thinking, problem-solving, and iteration in action.
It’s a real-world UX project—one where the users (hiring managers) actively participate by providing feedback.
